    I’ve imported about 90 records into my Connections Pro directory but need to set each record’s external website link/s to open in a new browser window/tab. Doing each manually is time consuming, so I went into mySQL and tried changing the ‘Target’ column in the wp_connections_link table from ‘same’ to ‘new’, however on reloading the directory in my browser, the links are all still opening on the same page. Anyone know how to get this to work — or is there a better way to do a bulk modification to get all links to open in a new window?

    Another user asked a similar question the other day. Install the Code Snippets plugin and add a new snippet with the code in this support ticket reply.

    Hope that helps!

    Thanks, Steven, that did the trick. I did have to change ‘taget’ to ‘target’ in that snippet though (just mantioning that so anyone who follows this thread in the future will avoid frustation). Cheers once again!

    Thanks for reminding me again about the typo … I’m going to fix the original code snippet too. Right now, so I do not forget again.
