Add a link in a new tab with the \"Custom Link Menu New Tab\" module<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

In a WordPress site, it often happens that certain links in the navigation menu need to open in a new tab. However, WordPress doesn't offer a simple, visible interface for managing this behavior directly from the menu settings. That's why we've developed the Custom Link Menu New Tab<\/strong> from WPMasterToolKit. This module adds a practical option for configuring the opening of custom links in a new tab, while automatically adding attributes such as rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\"<\/code>This enhances both the user experience and safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Which plugin can the \"Custom Link Menu New Tab\" module replace?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This module can easily replace dedicated plugins such as \"External Links in New Window \/ New Tab<\/strong> or other similar extensions that add functionality for opening links in a new tab for menus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Simplified management of personalized links<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

With the Custom Link Menu New Tab<\/strong>users now have precise control over the opening of custom links in menus. Here's how it works:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Checkbox added to menu parameters<\/strong> A new checkbox appears in the menu item editing options (only available for custom links).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Save selected option<\/strong> If this option is enabled, it will be saved for this specific menu link.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Automatic addition of attributes<\/strong> When the box is checked, the attributes target=\"_blank\"<\/code> and rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\"<\/code> are automatically added to the link, guaranteeing greater security and SEO compliance.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    How do I use the \"Custom Link Menu New Tab\" module?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    1. Activate the Custom Link Menu New Tab<\/strong> from the WPMasterToolKit parameters.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. Go to Appearance > Menus<\/strong> in the WordPress dashboard.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. Add or modify a personalized link<\/strong> in your menu.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    4. In the element parameters, a new checkbox entitled \"Open link in new tab and add rel='noopener noreferrer nofollow' \"<\/strong> will appear. Check it if you want the link to open in a new tab.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    5. Save the menu to apply the changes.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
      \"WordPress<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

      The module does all the work in the background: it saves your choice and automatically applies the necessary attributes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Technical choices behind the module<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      Optimized performance<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      In keeping with the WPMasterToolKit philosophy, we've designed this module so that it doesn't load no unnecessary resources<\/strong>. If the module is not activated, it is not loaded into WordPress, which limits its impact on your site's overall performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Using WordPress filters and actions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      We used native WordPress hooks<\/strong> to ensure maximum compatibility with other extensions and themes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      • wp_nav_menu_item_custom_fields<\/code><\/strong> This filter allows us to add the checkbox directly to the menu item parameters.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • wp_update_nav_menu_item<\/code><\/strong> This action saves the value of the checkbox when the menu is saved.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • nav_menu_link_attributes<\/code><\/strong> This filter is used to automatically add the attributes target=\"_blank\"<\/code> and rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\"<\/code> to the relevant custom links.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

        Enhanced safety<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

        Attributes rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\"<\/code> automatically added protect your site from potential vulnerabilities linked to external links opened in a new tab, while respecting SEO best practices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
