I’m having this same problem on multiple sites with different themes (Page Links To won’t open links in a new browser window when clicking the checkbox). I even experience the problem when I activate the default 2012 theme. I hope this is fixed soon.
i use with page links to : WP External Links and i choice use javascript to open link, and it’s workink !
Please, I need some help.
When clicking the checkbox the link don’t open in a new window, it’s open the same window.
Fixed this issue
page-links-to.php (line no 212)
function template_redirect() {
if ( !is_single() && !is_page() )
return;
global $wp_query;
$link = get_post_meta( $wp_query->post->ID, ‘_links_to’, true );
if ( !$link )
return;
wp_redirect( $link, 301 );
exit;
}
Replace with below code
function template_redirect() {
//if ( !is_single() && !is_page() )
// return;
global $wp_query;
$link = get_post_meta( $wp_query->post->ID, ‘_links_to’, true );
if ( !$link )
return;
wp_redirect( $link, 301 );
exit;
}
It is working fine 🙂

I’ve got the same problem.
Jayesh Patel, the code in your last post, where do I put it? Your first solution didn’t help me, do I need the code in both of your posts?
Funkan, Please use below code
<?php
$newtarget = get_post_meta( $post->ID, ‘_links_to’, true);
if ($newtarget){$tarket_link = ‘target=”_blank”‘;} else {$tarket_link = ”;}
?>
<?php echo $tarket_link; ?>><?php the_title();?>
It is working fine 🙂

It is working fine 🙂
Try the latest version of the plugin, 1.9.2, which has better support for opening links in a new tab.
