This might be just my own preference and others may be ok with the way it works right now, but I thought I'd mention it anyway.

When there is a link in a post, and we click the link, it will load in the same page where the post is.
That means losing the page with the original post.

I am aware that right clicking the link and choosing "open in a new tab" solves the issues, but it's easy to forget to do it.

If the majority agrees with me (and the boss of course :mrgreen:), would it be possible to have links open in a new tab?

I am sorry I didn't explain myself very well lol, I hope it makes sense.

I tried to install the Happy Chirps button today and it was fairly disastrous. I made a backup before I started playing with the code, but a few posts were made after that and they've been lost because I did have to reinstall the backup. I'm not sure whether we lost the 'open link in new window' function so this is a test:

Edit: it's still working! I think I've repaired all the damage now, except for the lost posts which can't be recovered.
