This plugin enqueues a simple jQuery script that looks for any anchor tag that has an href property to something with a file extension of 1-5 characters and makes it open in a new window or tab.<\/p>\n\n

see script here<\/a><\/p>\n\n

This means any link to a .pdf, .txt, .ppt, .doc, .xls, .xlst, etc will automatically have the property 'target=\"_blank\"' added to it so it opens in a new window or browser tab.<\/p>\n\n\n

Upload the plugin files or install from the WordPress.org plugin repository.<\/p>\n\n

e.g.<\/p>\n\n

    \n
  1. Upload wp-open-files-new-window.php<\/code> to the \/wp-content\/plugins\/<\/code> directory<\/li>\n
  2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n
    \n
    What kind of links will this alter?<\/dt>\n

    Any link that goes to a file<\/p><\/dd>\n

    What does it do<\/dt>\n

    Ex: This plugin would transform <a href=\"link-to-pdf.pdf\">Open PDF<\/a><\/code> to <a href=\"link-to-pdf.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Open PDF<\/a><\/code><\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\n
