"Open external links in a new tab by default" not working

Support

Instead of tweaking in settings I use this way

Demo: Discourse Theme Creator

<script type="text/discourse-plugin" version="0.8">
    api.onPageChange((url, title) => {
        // Automatically open external links in new tab or window
        var pc = 1;
        if ($("html").hasClass("mobile-device")) pc = 0;
        var links = document.links;
        for (var i = 0, linksLength = links.length; i < linksLength; i++) {
            if (links[i].hostname != window.location.hostname) {
                if (pc) links[i].target = '_blank'; else links[i].target = '_self';
            }
        }
    });
</script>
