Forum:Boilerplate preload opens new tab/window

Forums: Village pump → Boilerplate preload opens new tab/window
(This topic is archived. Please do not edit this page!)

For the past several days now, I have been noticing that when I am on an empty page and want to fill it out using a boilerplate, the preload function now opens a new browser tab / window. Previously, it would preload the template in my current tab / window. My browser has not had any updates, my browser addons have not changed in any way, restarting the browser did nothing... It can't be on my end.

I didn't say anything until now because I wanted to wait and see if this issue would resolve itself quickly (apparently not). Hopefully it can be fixed soon because while it's far from being the end of the world, it doesn't make it any less irritating.

It does it to me as well. On all the browsers if I must say. (Firefox, IE, Chrome) — SurafbrovWarcraft Wiki administrator T / C 03:03, 22 April 2015 (UTC)

Seems to be an issue with creating new articles. An example of this can be seen when on a non-existent article and hitting the "Click here to edit this page." link, it will open a new tab to edit. Sssssssssssssssssssssssss For Pony! (^Sssss/_Slithered) 22:03, 22 April 2015 (UTC)

I'll send this upstream. Curse changed something in the skin. --k_d³ 22:08, 22 April 2015 (UTC)

Update: There's a ticket in to fix it. If not tonight, tomorrow when they get back into the office. --k_d³ 01:25, 23 April 2015 (UTC)
