Understanding the Task
When you click on a link within your Xenforo forum's navbar, typically the linked page replaces the current page. However, you might want to have certain links open in a new tab or window, allowing users to continue browsing your forum while viewing external content. This can be achieved by adding a specific attribute to the link's HTML code.
Steps Involved
- From Setup list menu (left sidebar), locate the Navigation options -> Public Navigation:
- Access your navigation bar that you want to change.
- Scroll to down till Extra Attribute:
- Inside Name field, write "
Target", add the attribute target="_blank". This attribute tells the browser to open the linked page in a new tab or window.
Benefits of Opening Links in New Tabs:
- Improved User Experience: Users can continue browsing your forum while viewing external content.
- Increased Engagement: Users are more likely to explore external links without leaving your forum.
- Flexibility: You can control which links open in new tabs based on your specific needs.
By following these steps and understanding the underlying concepts, you can easily customize your Xenforo navbar to provide a more user-friendly experience.
Note: Always back up your Xenforo installation before making any modifications to the templates.
Would you like me to add anything else to this explanation, or perhaps provide a more detailed example using Xenforo's navigation manager?
Translation of the Arabic instructions:
"Use the Navigation manager and edit the link. In the extra attributes, you need "target" with a value of "_blank"."
This instruction means that you can use Xenforo's built-in tool to modify links. When editing a link, you'll find a section for adding extra attributes. In this section, you need to add the attribute "target" and set its value to "_blank". This will make the link open in a new tab or window.
