"Allow customers to log in from the header of online store and at checkout" opening new page

[paulson1]

Hi,

I enabled "Allow customers to log in from the header of online store and at checkout" on Customer Accounts page and I am using "Customers log in with a one-time code sent to their email (no passwords)" option.

When a user tries to login by clicking the icon on the header, it is opening a new tab.

We do not want login to open a new tab.

How to open Register / Login on the same window?

Thanks

To ensure the login opens in the same window on your Shopify store, follow these steps:

1. Edit the Theme Code:

   • Go to Online Store > Themes in Shopify.
   • Click Actions > Edit code for your active theme.

2. Locate the Header Section:

   • In the theme editor, find the header file (often header.liquid or within the Sections folder).

3. Modify the Link Attribute:

   • Look for the login link and ensure it does not include target="_blank". Change target="_blank" to target="_self" or remove it to open in the same window.

4. Check for JavaScript:

   • Some themes use JavaScript to control link behavior. If the problem persists, inspect any custom scripts related to the header or login.

Hi,

Thank you for your reply.

I could not find the code to replace on header.liquid.

I am using the theme - https://themes.shopify.com/themes/canopy

Thanks,
