Hi All,

 

The external link mentioned in Content item is not opening in new window even after setting Target= New Window/Tab. I am in Washington release.

I read some article where it said set target="-blank" in href but I am not getting where to set it , this is content item. I tried it couple of places but it did not help.

Is there something I am missing. 

 

Thanks,

Uma
