Open external link in a new tab - Sense theme

[Grant68]

Hi Guys, can anyone help me here. I'm using the new Online Store 2.0 theme Sense. How do I open external link in a new tab. I can do it in older themes using this: https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/online-store/themes/themes-by-shopify/vintage-themes/customizing-...
But it doesn't work in Sense.

Please help.

@Grant68 ,

On which page do you want it?

Hi Oscprofessional.

It is for the whole site/Store. On older free themes its in the code. This is a link to a solution but the theme Sense doesn't have theme.js in the assets folder.

Please let me know if you can help.

Thanks
