Make Moodle's Custom Menu Item URLs to open in a new window
Be default, when you click the menu item you add in Moodle, you will be redirected to that link. If you want the menu open in a new window, you can do the following (example): In Site administration -> Appearance -> Themes -> Theme settings (or http://your.moodle.url/admin/settings.php?section=themesettings), in the "Custom menu item" box: Moodle new window|http://www.moodle.org/ " target="_blank" But it fails if the URL has special characters like: Moodle new window|http://www.moodle.org/ ?param1¶m2 " target="_blank"
