Change URL Link Target Behavior

URL links in the articles can open in the same tab or a new tab. If you want, you can change the existing URL link behavior. By default, the URL links open in a new tab.

To change the URL link behavior:

  1. Edit the article.
  2. Click Enable source editing icon to edit the content.
    Note: You need to have the required privileges to access this icon.
  3. Locate the href tag of the URL link you want to edit.
  4. Edit the value of the target attribute in the source for the URL link as desired:

    • To open the link in the same tab, set target="_self"

      For example: <a href="http://www.oracle.com" target="_self">Oracle</a>

    • To open the link in a new tab, set target="_blank"

      For example: <a href="http://www.oracle.com" target="_blank">Oracle</a>

  5. Save the article.
