Hi,

Follow the steps to create menu in default portal:

1) Goto System Definition -> Application Menus

2) Open existing menu like "Self-service" if you want to create this link under existing application

3) Click New and create a new application menu if you want a separate section (Note: You can set permission to control visibility to a specific role)

4) Inside Module Related list of the Application Menu click New button

5) Set a valid name

6) Set Link Type type to "URL (from Arguments)"

7) Set Arguments to /sp

😎 Set Window Name to _blank 

9) Save

Hope this address your requirement

Thank you,

Palani

Using link-button widget you can add URL in portals

1) Clone the widget first to allow customization.

2) On the HTML Template field on the widget, add in the attribute of target="_blank" so it's like this:
<a target="_blank" ng-href="{{options.href}}" class="btn btn-{{options.color}} m-b" role="button">{{data.buttonMsg}}</a>

Using Icon Link widget:

1) Clone the widget first to allow customization.

2) In the widget editor click the menu icon and click "Edit option schema."

3) Click the + icon to add a widget option as follows:

Label: Target

Name: target

Type: Choice

Choices:

_blank, _self, etc. (you may add more options that make sense for link type such as _top)

4) Now whenever this widget is used there would now be the option to select the target type for the link. Setting it to _blank will make the links to open in a new tab.

 

Using HTML widget:

1) Add the HTML widget to a page as normal.

2) On the HTML field of the widget create a link by going to the source code (using the <> icon on the editor).

3) Put the target attribute with value _blank as seen below for the link:

(<a href="http://yourlink.com" target="_blank">Your link text</a>)
