Adding link button widget in portal employee center pro

poornima batchu · ‎07-25-2022

Hi All,

I'm configuring the esc pro portal page, In the bottom i added a Link button widget. I wanted to open this link in a new tab but after clicking on that old portal view buttonn it is opening in the same tab. Is there a way how to open this link in new tab..?

thank you

Hello @poornima batchu ,

if you have used an OOB widget you need to clone your widget and make a copy of it and update the HTML code to below .You need to add this target="_blank" attribute .

<a ng-href="{{options.href}}" class="btn btn-{{options.color}} m-b" target ="_blank" ng-if="data.socialQAEnabled && data.canReadKnowledgeBase">{{data.buttonMsg}}</a>

After this go to your page and replace your cloned widget in the instance holding the widget.

Just like i went to my page and highlighted go to your ESC home page in backend and find the instance which is holding your widget and replace your cloned widget

PATH:

Portals-->Employee Center-->Open Record--> open the record tagged in home page field and find the instance and replace cloned widget

Hi in your HTML widget you need to add target=_blank to open in new tab example below

<a href="url" target = "_blank">Click Here</a>
