If you’re editing with MT in it’s default edit window you’ve got a URL button which allows you to highlight some text and turn it into a URL. Great. However if like me you like links like that to popup in a new window (yes, I know some people hate that, but I don’t), then you’ll want to change this default behaviour.
Edit \tmpl\cms\edit_entry.tmpl, and find line 129 (in version 2.63 & 2.64), it looks like this, and belongs to the function insertLink()
document.selection.createRange().text =
Add to that line a target=”_blank” or whatever extra HTML you’d like, before the > tag.
Yes, perhaps you’re not interested, but the next time I’ll be upgrading MT, I’ll need this, and at least now I’ll no where to find it.
