  • works flawless for me

  • didnot work for me in chrome

    There was an error rendering this rich post.

  • Redtwentyfour - which browser are you using?

  • Thanks Redtwentyfour.

  • Working perfectly for me, Chrome 16.0.912.75 m

  • Explorer 9 on Win7 machine - Got the message that the content cannot be displayed in a Frame with an option to display it in a new page (which worked fine)

  • My understanding is you are inserting the code through a gadget? This is what could be causing the issue. It is not direct.

    grep is your friend.

  • Ok thanks guys I have this resolved now.

  • @Troutman8 good idea to post the answer so others can benefit.

    grep is your friend.

  • The issue: highlighting text and pressing the "link" button and adding the url. When the link is clicked by a reader the link refreshes the same window without the forum properly loading.

    The solution: I am not using the link button. instead I just copy and paste the URL right into the message. An automatic link is created.

    I'm having the same problem, I figure out a good way to fix it would be to make so the link to ''STORE'' takes the user to the store in a new window.

    So I need to find the code to change the main menu link from

    a class="" href="/swap/store">Store

    to

    a class="" href="/swap/store" target="_blank">Store

    If I find the file I'm able to make the changes but I don't know which file it would be, little help please?

    Thanks

    ps: I've checked the template, and this links being generated by {custom_menu} which, according to the documentation is "A placeholder for future menu items.". Any idea how marketplace is pushing the menu item STORE ? surely there's a file that informs vanilla to create a link called STORE .
