Link just one image from gallery to external URL in new browser window

Any quick way to add target _blank to URL for a gallery item URL? Don't want to alter the snippet to always do it - I just have one image that needs to link into a new window rather than current. Its probably simple - just me being a bit dim...

Cheers

What I've done is use the gallery item tags field to insert if I want it to open in a blank page so in your tpl do something like this:



So if you want your link to open in a new page you would type in _blank in the tags field, it the tags field is empty it doesn't render the target attribute.

Hope that helps, good luck.

 <A href="[[+url:is=``:then=`[[+image]]`:else=`[[+url]]`]]" [[*tags:!empty='target="[[*tags]]"]]'><IMG alt=[[+name]] src="[[+thumbnail]]"> </A>

Hey, does anyone know why in MODULES GALLERY where I frequently move around the order of JPEGS, this TIP: "You can select multiple files with CTRL and SHIFT combinations" doesn't work? I have to drag each JPEG one by one to re-arrange then update their order and it is a huge time suck. Why offer the tip to move multiple JPEGS at one time when it doesn't work? Thanks for any guidance here. I am a designer not a developer. jane

Ah, thought Ben might be along

I'm using your Nivo Gallery for this - which Tpl exactly should I be poking around in?

Thanks

Phil

@PhilW look into changing the nivoRowTpl chunk which is the template it uses for image links if I'm not mistaken.

Good luck.
