Would love to get this option with SMF, there is a mod but its old and not sure if it will work with 2.01 I have not tried it yet. :dontknow  :emb

:EDIT:
I found and easy way to do it.

In your redirect board, under "Full name:This is the name that will be displayed" use bbs and add the link like so
[url=https://your link here.co.uk/][b]the name here[/b][/url]
Check the box "Redirect to a web address:"

in the section "Address to redirect users to:" add any word you like not a url

You will see it will open the link in a new tab :vcool

Don't know if this still works, but the way I always did it was by entering the URL like this:

Sorry, like this:

<a href="https://www.smfhelper.com" target="_blank">Visit SMFH</a>
<a href="https://www.smfhelper.com" target="_blank">Visit SMFH</a>

Click the url above OR Click the BBC Link and add https://www.smfhelper.com" target="_blank" in the website part and whatever text you want in the 2nd part. You'll get the following.

I thought it did work. Maybe I'm thinking of the trick to make menu links open in a new tab/window instead.
