when I click on the button it opens a link on another page, how do I click on the button and it opens on the same page?

I’m not sure, but I believe there are a couple of official theme components that are the up-to-date method of acheiving this. Topic Footer Buttons
Do they behave in a similar way?

I installed them, but both open the link in another window, is there any way for it to open in the same window?
Hmmm.
.replace("<TOPIC_TITLE>", this.topic.title)
.replace("<TOPIC_SLUG>", this.topic.slug);
}
if (currentUser) {
url = url
.replace("<USER_ID>", currentUser.id)
.replace("<USERNAME>", currentUser.username)
}
window.open(url, "_blank");
},
dropdown() {
return this.site.mobileView;
},
classNames: ["discourse-custom-topic-button"],
dependentKeys: ["topic.id", "topic.title", "topic.slug"],
displayed() {
return settings.custom_topic_button_enabled;
}
});
(and the plugins too I think)

It does not seem that there’s currently a way through the UI to change that. It may be possible to amend that behaviour with a bit of custom work, but I’m afraid that’s not my forte.

Hi koliwi, I’ll try to have a look at the theme component to add this feature this week.

Is this plugin yours? Congratulations for the work, I really liked it! If you can open it in the same window it will be even better! Thanks!

Deprecated: There is now a theme-component that provides the same feature: Topic Footer Buttons
GitHub: https://github.com/techapj/discourse-custom-topic-button
Install: Follow the plugin installation guide.
If I’m reading it right, I think it’s part of the theme component code that it opens in a new window:
