 * Is it possible to open the links added via the “Add Reader Extras” section (pages
   such as reviews, reader guides, etc.) in the same browser window? By default,
   my links are opening a new browser tab…my links are to pages within the same 
   site and I want them to open within the same window as the parent page.

 * Hi dysimpson,
 * Thanks for using our plugin, and for your great question.
 * Right now, the system is set up to open all Reader Extras links in new windows,
   because many users put external site links in these boxes.
 * But we will definitely consider adding an option into the Reader Extras section–
   such as a checkbox that allows users to choose whether the link opens in a new
   window or not–in one of our plugin updates!
 * In the meantime, there is a workaround that might help…
 * Rather than entering your links in the Reader Extras box of the plugin, you could
   add a heading below your book summary text, in the text box, and add your links
   there.
 * So, for example, if your title was Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, you’d have
   something like this on your page:
 * **Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland**
    Available now from Signet Classics
 * **About the Book: **
    The young Alice follows a hasty hare underground-to come
   face-to-face with some of the strangest adventures in all of literature.
 * In this arresting parody of the fears, anxieties, and complexities of growing
   up, readers enter the world of make-believe, where the impossible becomes possible
   and the heights of adventure are unlimited.
 * **Reader Extras:**
    [Watch a Video](http://www.yoursitehere.com) [Read a Sample Chapter](http://www.yoursitehere.com)
   [Download the Discussion Guide  The pro to this is it gives you a quick workaround
   to the plugin default. The con is, your Reader Extras will go below your Book
   Summary.
 * Meanwhile, we’ll definitely keep this option in mind for a future rollout.
 * Let me know if I can offer any other tips. We’re here to help:)
 * Cheering you on,
    Kelli

 * dysimpson,
 * One more thought: If you have coding skills, and would like to modify the system
   defaults to open in the same window, you can also do that using the [**advanced options found here**](http://wordpress.org/plugins/totally-booked/other_notes/#Advanced-Usage)!

 * I have been working on adding the ability to chose whether or not to open the
   links in a new window to the next update, Im hoping to get it pushed out this
   week.

 * Are you still considering adding the ability to choose whether or not to open
   the links in a new window?

 * dysimpson, This ability was added in the last update.
 * Are you using the latest version of the plugin and the “Add Reader Links” section?
 * Cheers
