Good morning,
I am trying to wrap a Wordpress site into thunkable using the Web\_Viewer component. There are going to be links that have to open in a browser outside of the app. How should the links in the Wordpress site be created so that they can open a browser outside of the app?
Thank you!

Doesn’t WP allow you to set a link to open in a new window? This might be a better question for their forum?

Hello Jared, thank you for your response. I totally didn’t word that well. I would like a page to open in a web browser. Didn’t know if a link could be configured so that if selected in Thunkable, it would open in a web bowser outside the app.

if you are linking to a webpage from a button or action that occurs in the app, you could use this block
or are you asking, while running the app with a WP webpage on the screen using the webviewer, and you click on a link on that webpage, can you set thunkable or wordpress to tell the phone, “dont open this in the app, open an actual browser?”

Exactly, I would be selecting the link in the Wordpress webpage, but I didn’t know if there was a way to make the link tell to not open in the app, but an actual browser.

Thunkable does not offer that choice at this time.

@leah.marie.glick599p, happy to help! Although it does not exist now, it may be worth putting in a request on the [Thunkable Github Feature Request Page](https://github.com/thunkable/thunkable-issues/issues/new?template=feature_request.md)
Happy thunking!
