    Hi Folks,

    when I’m inserting a theme shortcode button with link target “new window”, the code is:
    [av_button label='klick me klick me' link='page,469' link_target='_blank'...
    and it will open a new tab or window.

    But when I change it to
    [av_button label='klick me klick me' link='page,469' link_target='_top'...
    after saving there’s no more target at all in the html/href.

    Is there a possibility not to filter out that “_top”? Because the page with the button is loaded in an iframe, and the button should link into the whole browser window – the reason, why “_top” has been invented…

    Thanks a lot for an answer!

    Best wishes
    Stephan

    Hey Stephan!

    It only accepts the current window or a new window.

    If you need to use _top then you can right click your page and view source and copy the button HTML and then paste it into a codeblock element and change the target that way.

    Best regards,

    Hi Elliot,
    thanks for your fast answer. But unfortunatley the editors (exept me) don’t “speak” HTML. Isnt’ there any possibility for a filter in the functions.php? Or do you know the responsible file, which only accepts the “_blank”?
    That would be a really great help!
    Best regards,
    Stephan

    Hey!

    Please turn on the custom css class field. http://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/turn-on-custom-css-field-for-all-alb-elements/

    Modify the buttons that requires a target=”_top” attribute. In the custom css class field, add something like “custom-button”. Update the page. Add this in the functions.php file afterwards:

    // target _top
function add_custom_script(){
?>
<script>
(function($) {
	$('.custom-button a').each(function() {
		$(this).removeAttr('target');
		$(this).attr('target', '_top');
	});
})(jQuery);
</script>
<?php
}
add_action('wp_footer', 'add_custom_script');

    If you’re working on a shortcode, just add this parameter inside the button shortcode:

    custom_class='custom-button'

    Regards,
    Ismael
