How to make plone 5 link type open in new window?

Plone Support
1

I know there is an option in the theme management, to make links open in new windows, but it don't work for link type... any idea?

2

It works in my Plone 5

Does this happen when you open the link from a folder view or when you open it from the navigation (portlet)

3

I test with summary view, and it load the link in the same tab.

Make sure you test when you're not logged in... the behaviour of Links changes if you have edit permission on them.

Have click update / clear cache after active External links open in new window. But it sill the same any idea?

Yeah, looking at the output of wget I'd say the Link does a normal HTTP redirect which wouldn't let you specify whether to open it in a new window:

It looks like this 'bug' is still present (?)

Plone 5.2.6, Python 3.6.

Did anyone find a workaround ?
