When I originally created the URL as a resource in a course, I did not see an option for it.
I went to Site administration > Plugins > URL but did not see an option to open the link in a new tab.
So, where is the option for students to click on the URL and have it open in a new tab? Or is there no such option?
Thank you for your help.
EDIT
I just saw that inside the Page resource, there is an obvious checkbox to select if you want a URL to open in a new window. Surely there must be something similar to this for the URL resource and new tabs as well!
