Continuing the discussion from Exclude TOS from getting squashed by git pulls?:
So, we did this, and find that users who click on that TOS are essentially booted from the forum.
Even if it were on the discourse site, I’d rather have the TOS/Guidelines page open in a new window anyway
What do the powers behind Discourse think about having those open in new windows at all times?
If we’re talking about the items in the hamburger menu, those don’t open in a new window, despite the setting for default external links in new tab
In this image, the FAQ link goes to our Zendesk site, and does not open a new window.
You’re logged in - what’s your personal setting for external ilnks in new tab? How about a new account?
My setting is to open in new windows.
Same on a new user.
did anyone find a solution or workaround for this. When I click TOS or Privacy policy it opens my website page replacing the forum in the current browser window rather than opening a new tab.
You would need a theme component to make that work, there is no built in way.
