Map Event Links open in New Tab

[techuser]

Hello,

We are looking to have our maps event links (inside the selected pins pop up box) open in a new tab automatically using HTML target attribute. I cannot seem to find where the <a href is generated in the PHP for the event link that pops up in the map when you select a pin for the event.

Hey Eric,

Thank you for reaching out to us!

The link is generated via JavaScript on:

events-calendar-pro/src/resources/js/tribe-events-ajax-maps.js line 59.

It’s certainly possible to modify this file and achieve what you want, but remains something that we do not support “out of the box”: some amount of custom dev work would be required to make this happen.

To help you get started, you can use one of our extensions as an example:

https://theeventscalendar.com/extensions/google-maps-multiple-events-same-venue/

This extension overrides the default tribe-events-ajax-maps.js file: you can use it as an example/starting point to build your own code.

I hope this helps! If you have any other questions at all please feel free to let me know and I’d be happy to help as best I can!

Cheers,

Patricia

This alteration seemed to do the trick at line 58:

content_title = $( ‘<div/>’ ).append( $( “<a/>” ).attr(‘target’, ‘_blank’).attr( ‘href’, link ).text( title ) ).html();
}
