Menu link target in submenu

Hi GrandmasterA,

Can you give us a link to the page where the submenu you’re referring is shown?

Hi GrandmasterA,

Thanks for providing us with the link and I tried to reproduce it on my end Navigation Menu widget however I could not reproduce the issue on my end.
Can you give us temporary admin access? so we can try to inspect the backend. If you can setup a staging site for us, it would be better so we can try to troubleshoot the issue without affecting your live site. Here’s a simple tutorial you can follow: https://themeisle.com/blog/wordpress-staging-site/

Hi GrandmasterA,

No worries, also I tried to reproduce the issue using the following steps:
1. Go to Appearance > Menus, created a menu with some of the menu items are set to open in a new tab.
2. In Enfold > Sidebar Settings, Page Sidebar navigation is enabled and set to Right Sidebar
3. Go to Appearance > Widgets > Displayed Everywhere, added a Navigation Menu which the selected menu is the one I created in Step 1.
4. Checked in one of the pages where the sidebar appears (similar to the link in private content) but on my end, the menu items set to open in the new tab worked properly however on the link you gave it does not. This is why I mentioned I could not reproduce the issue on my end.
I’m not really sure what is causing the issue on your end, probably a plugin, a custom code, or maybe some settings that produce that bug you have on your end, however, it’s pretty hard to pinpoint what’s the cause of the issue since everything is working properly on my end, so we would need to try to troubleshoot it on a setup that has the issue. Since your site is probably live, we would like to ask if you can provide a staging site.

Hi GrandmasterA,

Thanks for giving us admin access.
I have checked on it and my assumptions on how it was setup was wrong and the sidebar navigation was generated by Enfold and it cannot be changed via Appearance > Menus.
I have add this code at the bottom of functions.php:

function open_in_newtab(){
    ?>
    <script>
        document.querySelector("#top .widget .page-item-920 > a").setAttribute("target", "_blank"); 
    </script>
    <?php
}
add_action('wp_footer', 'open_in_newtab');

However, this is not a good practice, because a theme update would wipe the code.
I would suggest using a child theme which you can download and find instructions in https://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/child-theme/
Then move the code out of the parent theme and place it in the child theme.

Hi GrandmasterA,

I apologize for the delayed response.
I could not find the correct menu for that page in Appearance > Menus (the only option I see is Footer Deutsch, Footer English, Hauptmenu Deutsch, Hauptmenu English).
If I checked Appearance > Widgets > Sidebar Pages there’s no Navigation Widget in there and that’s why I believe this function is triggered avia_sidebar_menu (in functions-enfold.php line 1725-1775 of Enfold 4.8.2) and it only displays its sibling pages.
To add Annual Reports to the sidebar in the link you gave, you’ll need to set Annual Report’s parent page to CiS eV.
