Thanks for the response Brecht. Looks like our Pin Method is set to “Load pinit.js (required for Repin ID pinning)”. As far as I know, that was just the default. Would changing that to “Link only” change the popup window behavior to a regular new tab?
For now, I just solved both of these problems by adding the following jQuery hack to my site javascript:
$('a.wprm-recipe-pin').attr('target', '_blank').on('click', function (e) {
e.stopPropagation();
});
This fixes the link target bug and also stops the click propagation, which prevents the custom popup window code from running. But I’d prefer to solve this with a legitimate setting instead of a hack if possible.
