MRMO88 Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 I seem to be having issues opening a topic in a new tab. On other websites I can hold Crtl and left click as normal. However when i do it on gtaforums.com it creates a new tab but also uses the tab I'm in to open the selected topic. Sure this worked properly before the changeover.

ṼirulenⱦEqừinox Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 (edited) It works fine for me Have you guys tried using the mouse itself instead of keyboard and mouse?

Like I said in the Support Forum I linked, it's forums, sub forums and topics that have this issue. I may have missed some others but that's the ones I noticed. It does it in Chrome and Firefox. Middle mouse click seems to work normally. Edited June 20, 2018 by GTA3Rockstar MRMO88 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahhhh Okay I see what you mean now, Yeah I just went to the general chat section and tried it using CTRL + Left Click and it opened a new tab with the topic it also opened the topic on the same tab. But like you pointed out using the Middle Button/Scroller works and so does the method I pointed out right clicking and selecting open new tab which is the way I've always done it personally so until they get it fixed you'll have to use Right Click > Open In New Tab or Click Using Center Mouse Button aka Scroller Button GIF SO ADMINS CAN SEE WHAT HAPPENS FIRST HAND Edited June 20, 2018 by AiraCobra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solution Spider-Vice Posted June 23, 2018 Solution Share Posted June 23, 2018 This is part of a known bug where clicking secondary links within a topic "box" will just redirect you to the main link. Middle mouse button will work fine.

whywontyoulisten Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 Wondered what was going on...it's pretty annoying. Also, I haven't seen a middle mouse button since 1999. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
