Hello! Help!

I have a link set-up on a List Item on my simple news page. It’s pulling the link from the CMS. And I’ve checked the box to ‘Open in New Tab’ — but it’s not working?! Any ideas? Help meeeeee pleaseeeee…

Here is my public share link: LINK
(how to access public share link)

It’s this code you have in your page.

I’d guess it’s site-wide code. Not sure what it’s purpose is, but it’s also adding nearly a 1 second delay to every link click. Paaaainful :laughing:

        <script>
            $(function() {
                $("a").click(function(evt) {
                    evt.preventDefault();
                    var link = $(this).attr("href");
                    setTimeout(function() {
                        window.location.href = link;
                    }, 900);
                });
            });
        </script>
