 * One of my fields is collecting a businesses URL upon registration. It’s now displaying
   on the directory, but I’d like it to link to the actual URL, and open in a new
   tab. Is that possible?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Flink-url-2%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi yanks789,
 * You can create a hyperlink for any field by placing a # sign at the beginning
   of the Meta Field Label corresponding to your meta field. For example if your
   Meta Label is “Website,” you would make it “#Website.” The pound sign won’t show
   up in the label on your directory and the URL will be hyperlinked. However, it
   unfortunately will not open in a new tab.
 * I’m planning to improve this feature in the next update such that you can hyperlink
   any meta field without messing with the Meta Label, and you can choose whether
   or not to open in a new tab.
 * Regards,
    Sarah
