Hi.

I want it so when someone clicks on a search result, it opens in a new tab. I would want this for all of them.

How can I do this?

Hi Jonathan

Usually, a link (in your search results) looks like this:

<a href="http://somelink.com">Link Text</a>

So to open in a new window, all you would do is add target="_blank":

<a href="http://somelink.com" target="_blank">Link Text</a>

Anyway, thats the technical part of it, now you just need to figure out where to change the link itself.

How are you displaying your results (display results method)?

You will probably need to edit a file in your theme.

Thanks
