Click the forums link from the homepage and the forums index opens in a new tab. Click a forum name in the index window OR from the dropdown list and the forum opens in a new tab. Click a thread, the thread opens in another tab. Click Post new thread, new thread window opens in a new tab. Every active link I've tried on TGR forums causes a new tab to open. Pretty soon I've got like 20 tabs open.
WTF?
Not happening on any other website.
Firefox.
Happening on chrome too.
Problem with the forum, not on your end. Something to do with the ads plugin or something. I'm sure someone is working on it.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using TGR Forums
yep. started today for me too. using chrome.
i kinda like it tho. except for whatever ad crap is going on.
Yeah I don't really mind it, I usually ctrl-click most links anyway.
Snow report over there ----> is also reporting 8 sig figs.
Yes me too, pain in ass.
Started last night, annoying as hell (every new page in a thread=new tab).
Please fix.
Seems to be happening to everyone but me. Maybe because I don't turn my computers off or close my browsers...
Just had 6 windows opened before I knew what was going on.
that is a bit interesting. I'm 2 for 2, both machines open up new windows.Quote:

this was driving me nuts yesterday. i was convinced i messed with my settings somehow. no playing with my Firefox settings seemed to alleviate the madness.
Same thing in Safari, I also thought it was my settings and wasted a bunch of valuable internetz time fucking around with it trying to fix it.
It is interesting. Since I don't use Safari I wasn't aware this happened. So I opened Safari and sure enough it was. But with Firefox on two different machines that the browser hasn't closed for days, or at least since this phenomenon started, no problem-o's while others on firefox are having the problem.Quote:

looks fixed to me, others?
wondering if they just pulled the plug on avantlink, even the sac [traditional] hyperlink won't open in a new window...
fixed in the last 10 min. Thanks!
Just cleared cache/cookies then rebooted as I'm still experiencing it, but that was a no-go. Your SAC link opened a new window as well. Pretty much every single hyperlink on the site is an avantlink.com redirect. Just mouse over a link and see where it's taking you. Very annoying. Hope they can get it squared away soon.
Example: When I click on 'Reply to Thread', this is the underlying URL:
It needs to be changed so that the link is:Code:http://www.avantlink.com/click.php?tt=ale&ti=2017&pri=0&pw=20253&mi=11793&ctc=TGR Forum Link&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.tetongravity.com%2Fforums%2Fnewreply.php%3Fp%3D3917070%26noquote%3D1
Here's the clickable difference:Code:http://www.tetongravity.com/forums/newreply.php?p=3917068&noquote=1
Bad:
http://www.avantlink.com/click.php?t...%26noquote%3D1
Good:
http://www.tetongravity.com/forums/n...7068&noquote=1
is anybody else experiencing what ^^^jgb is? I can't replicate what he's finding, when i hover over 'reply to thread' i see a direct TGR.com redirect, not avantlink. And clicking SAC just directs there on this same page.
Just restarted my browser again after posting that, and now it seems to be working correctly. Sweet!Quote:

As always just blame the redhead.. We were working on linking the sweet SAC deal for you maggots and flipped the wrong switch. All should be good now, you may have cache issues for the next hour.
Come by the office, we got stickers for everyone!
Redhead? Coulda sworn there was a blonde involved!
Nah, that's ginger shit.
Having this problem using Iron.
Still happening - Chrome.
Just started today for me with Chrome.
Hover over anything... EVERYTHING is avantlinks bringing up a new tab.
Happening to me now. I'm using Firefox. Just appears to be the forum. Doesn't happen on other websites.
Checking in... Chrome. Annoying.
Not only is it a new tab, it goes through avantlink. Someone broke something.
webgurus have been alerted...I seem to remember this happening once before? Hopefully a quick fix-

Chrome. Didn't shut the browser but did shut the tab(s) and reopen TGR. Still doing it.
Weird i didnt do anything, not even close the original tab and i am browsing without annoying new tab creation.Quote:

So they don't come up in new tabs now, but they are all still avantlinks. And the "go to last post" arrow only brings you to the last page, not the last post.
now it's just slower than shit to load a new page because of avantlink/vigilink. Oh fucking well, not like this has ever happened before or that TGR actually gives a shit. If you want stoke: make it easy to post stoke, those people who post stoke are the first driven away by stupid links/slower than shit to load.
That's because there is no testing in the routine... it's just "flip this switch and see if people bitch." Then, "We'll get to it next month." But they aren't even transparent enough to tell us.Quote:
