How do i disable links opening as a new tab?

Topic summary

A user wants to prevent buttons in a specific section from opening links in new tabs.

The solution provided involves modifying the Liquid template file:

  • Locate the section-columns.liquid file
  • Find the <a> tags within that section
  • Remove the target=“_blank” attribute from those anchor tags

This change will make links open in the same tab instead of spawning new browser tabs, affecting only that particular section.
