Open fullcalendar event links in new tab/window?

[Geoff Pimlatt]

Hello Stephen,

Sorry to bother you again so soon, but this question’s much simpler.

Basically, I was wondering if it were possible to add a ‘target=”_blank”‘ attribute to the links on the event (full)calendar somewhere (or some other JS solution), and I’ve been searching on your website and in this forum for about twenty minutes without any luck.

It’s okay if there isn’t an option! I just assumed it would be possible and am not sure if I overlooked something.

Hi Paul,

Apologies for the delay in getting back to you. Unfortunately there isn’t an option. However, I suspect you could listen for a click on the event, and then open the event in a new window by adding something like the following to the page:

 jQuery('.eo-fullcalendar').on( 'click', '.fc-event', function(e){
    e.preventDefault();
    window.open( jQuery(this).attr('href'), '_blank' );
});

Alright, thanks a lot! Works exactly as intended.
