Force Hyperlinks to Open in a New Tab

Modified: 23 Sep 2026 Vista Field Service Administration Help

Force hyperlinks that you have added to the portal to open in a separate browser tab.

You can add hyperlinks throughout different areas of the portal. If a link does not open in a separate browser tab by default, you can edit the link so that it does.
  1. In a rich-text field, use the Link button to add a hyperlink as usual.

  2. In the HTML expression target="", add the following text between the quotation marks: _blank. For example:
    <p><a href="https://www.google.com/" target="_blank">tasks</a></p>
    Note: Highlight added to expression for emphasis only.


    Note: In the rich text editor, the option no longer functions for editing HTML code. Selecting this icon only highlights text in the editor.
  3. Save your changes.
