The Open Link is a very simple plugin, extending context menu with a possibility to open link in a new tab.
- extending context menu with a possibility to open link in a new tab,
- allowing you to open link with a ctrl/cmd click,
It also integrates with linked image2 widgets.
Basically the same as CKEditor with one exception: opening a link with ctrl click does not work in Internet Explorer / Edge browsers. Pull requests are welcome.
There are few config options available, you need to define them in standard CKEditor config object.
Specifies what modifier key(s) should be pressed to open the link. It's based on CKEDITOR.CTRL, CKEDITOR.SHIFT and CKEDITOR.ALT members.
You might also provide 0 as the value - it will cause any click to open the link, without need to press any modifier key.
You can specify multiple modifiers, e.g. having config.openlink_modifier = CKEDITOR.SHIFT + CKEDITOR.CTRL would trigger the link with CTRL key or SHIFT key or both of them being pressed.
Defaults to: CKEDITOR.CTRL
Determines whether this plugin feature should be available also in read-only mode. For backward compatibility reason this value is set to false by default.
config.openlink_enableReadOnly = true; // Allows opening links also while editor is in read-only mode.
Defaults to: false
Sets the target where new window should be open.
config.openlink_target = '_self'; // Will cause current page to be replaced by link click.
Defaults to: '_blank'
