clicking on links

Before the big upgrade last month if you clicked on a link that someone had posted it opened up in a new window for you to read once you had finished on A.com. Why now does it go straight to that link while we are still reading the post.

System enhancement?

I noticed and wondered the same when I clicked on the blog link this morning.

I prefer it like it is now instead of having to close lots of Windows.

Or press CTRL and click.

To have the links open in a new window requires functions_content.php and some other files editing on the server.
It's a bit fiddly to do and to be fair, if we can live with it, it's probably best.
