Markdown - Open hyperlink in same tab using web chat or web client

[Former Member]

Hi,

I'm building a chatbot with web chat and web client. My chatbots are using hyperlinks in the message via Markdowns. When someone clicks the links, it opens in a new tab. I can't have that. Someone could have 10 different tabs open by clicking the links.

How would I set this up so that each time the link is clicked, the page opens in the same tab instead of opening a new tab?

Thanks and I look forward to your answer!

Hi Fred,

just a thought: if you open a link in the same tab, your bot will possibly be gone. I think this could be a reason why links are opened in a separate tab. Cheers, Gabi

Thanks for the comment. True, but I'm adding the bot to each page and so when clicked, the page changes and the bot reappear with the discussion in the same place. Therefore, each time a linked is clicked, the page changes and a bot window reappears --- all in one window/tab.
