stop Hyperlink in sharepoint online open new tab
Hello!
I have a picture with hyperlinks in sharpont online, but i want to stay in the same tab when klicking.
It opens a new tab, and it will be som many tabs thats confusing, is there i solution for this to stay in the same tab?
- SharePoint will automatically open in a new tab if the URL to the item isn't using your tenant's SharePoint URL. I had the opposite issue, where I wanted to open links in a new tab rather than the current tab. I used some Javascript and the Modern Script Editor to make that work.

You could do the opposite with a small modification to the code I used. Change the a.target="_blank"; to a.target="" and change the startsWith URL.
I hope that helps.- I installed modern scriprt app and changed the code but i did not work for me. Hyperlinks in dokument still opens in new tabs. I am no expert at java, but i paste the exatly code.
Seems like hyperlinks always opens a new tab, still the link is in the tenant.william41550 Try _self instead of _target:
