Opening a an image link to a new tab and Search

    Greetings Jacob,

    Sorry to be bothering you again. I’m using the “Photo specific link url” to link to a YouTube video (there is an image from it in the gallery, among other images, for someone to click on, the rest of the images are light-boxed). But if you find the video through searching and click on it, it takes you to the YouTube video. But, if you go back with the browser you get an error that the search page can’t be found.

    I’m trying to find a workaround for this. Maybe there’s a way to open the video in a new tab (preferably) through a image specific setting or code in the link? Or maybe there’s a search setting that causes the error when you go back? I’m not sure.

    Your plugin is much appreciated and your support has been great.

    Thanks

    I found the simple drop-box that you handily placed next to the setting (facepalm) to open it in a new tab. But the search function may still need some looking into.

    I tested it with and without new tab, both searching from the tagcloud and from the search photo widget, but the browsers back arrow works correctly on my testsite, so, if you still have an issue, pls supply me a link and instructions what to see what kind of unwanted behaviour.

    I’ll email you a link.

    Okay so this is happening in Edge and apparently not in Chrome. Basically, when you search for one term (say “door hanger” (without the quotes)) then from the resulting photo-search-results page, search for something else (say “11×17” without the quotes), the results for 11×17 show up. But if you press the browsers back button from those results, to theoretically go back to the search results for “door hanger”, Edge is showing an error page: “This Page Was Just Here a Second Ago”. If you hit refresh it asks if you would like to resubmit the form. Then if you click retry the page shows up okay. But this doesn’t happen in Chrome, apparently. I don’t know if it’s a difference in coding on your end, or a browser issue.

    Anyway, thanks again for getting back to me.
