Enhance the User Experience with WPMasterToolKit's External Links New Tabs Module

In the world of modern websites, making navigation easier for users is crucial. When a user clicks on an external link, it's often preferable for that link to open in a new tab to avoid leaving the site they were visiting. With this in mind, we developed the External Links New Tabs for our WPMasterToolKit plugin.

Which plugin can External Links New Tabs replace?

There are a number of plugins on the market offering similar functionality, but often through more cumbersome and complex solutions. The plug-in External Links New Tabs from WPMasterToolKit is designed to replace these plugins by offering a simple, lightweight solution for opening external links in new tabs. It focuses exclusively on this functionality, avoiding superfluity and optimizing the loading of your site.

Key feature: Automatic opening of External Links in a New Tab

This module works by automatically adding the attribute target="_blank" attribute to all external links present in the content of your WordPress site. In addition to this, for security and SEO reasons, it also adds the attribute rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow". This not only ensures that the link opens in a new tab, but also protects your site from potential hacking via the vulnerability known as "tabnabbing" while optimizing for SEO.

How do I use the External Links New Tabs Module?

Using the External Links New Tabs module couldn't be simpler. Once activated in WPMasterToolKit, it starts working instantly, with no further configuration required. All external links on your site will open in new tabs, guaranteeing better navigation management for your visitors.

Our technical approach

The heart of this module is based on a WordPress filter the_content. By intercepting content before it is displayed, our module reviews all link elements <a> to ensure that they meet the defined criteria. It's an efficient solution that doesn't overload your site with extra scripts or unnecessary calls.

If you wish to customize or extend this functionality, you can use the filter the_content assuring us that this would not interfere with other possible customizations.
