How can I open all links in a new tab in Webflow using jQuery?
To open all links in a new tab in Webflow using jQuery, you can follow these steps:
Add the jQuery library: If you haven't already, you'll need to include the jQuery library in your Webflow project. You can do this by either downloading the library and adding it to your project folder, or by linking to a CDN (Content Delivery Network) version of jQuery. Include the jQuery library at the end of the
<body>tag, just before the closing</body>tag.Add a script tag: Inside the
<script>tags, you'll add your jQuery code to open links in a new tab. You can place this script tag either in the<head>section of your Webflow project or just before the closing</body>tag.Use jQuery to target the links: Write jQuery code to target all the links on your Webflow site. You can do this using the
$('a')selector, which will select all<a>tags on your site.Add the target attribute: Once you have selected all the links, you'll add the
target="_blank"attribute to them. This attribute tells the browser to open the link in a new tab or window when clicked. To do this, use the.attr()method in jQuery, like this:$('a').attr('target', '_blank');Save and publish: After adding the script and making sure the jQuery code is correctly written, save your changes and publish your Webflow project. Now, when users click on any link on your website, it will open in a new tab or window.
