    Is there a way I can make the image links open in a new tab?
    I’ve tried changing the window.location to window.open in a3-rslider-display.php file – results in no links opening at all.
    I’ve tried installing third party plugins for opening all external links in new tab – no changes to the slider links at all.

    I already have this setup so I didn’t want to rush into using another plugin before asking for help. Any suggestions?

    i had the same need. solved by updating line 233 of a3-rslider-display.php,

    new code:
    echo ‘ onclick=”window.open(\”.esc_attr( trim( $item->img_link ) ).’\’);” ‘;

    old code
    echo ‘ onclick=”window.location=\”.esc_attr( trim( $item->img_link ) ).’\’;” ‘;

    hope that helps

    Thanks GearNutsNet for helping JuroC

    The option to [] Open link in a new window is on the plugins development roadmap and will be released in the next Feature Upgrade.

    You can see from the changelog that we have had 7 new version upgrades so far this year – all of which have been Maintenance upgrades.

    A new Feature Upgrade version is in the Que and this feature will be added then. – Steve
