Hi guys -
My favoured method of browsing lovehoney is to open new tabs for the items I want a closer look at - I'm sure I'm not the only one who does it this way!
However, half the time when I right click on a product, the menu doesn't give the option to open the link in a new tab - only the back/forward/reload dropdown. Anyone else had this issue? I use chrome, wondered if it was just me!
Cheers - and happy shopping! x
I've just tried this myself and it is certainly a random issue. When using Chrome it works more often than not but then what you are describing will happen but then a moment later the menu will work properly.
I spammed the same page in Firefox for a couple of minutes and each time it gave me the option to open in a new tab. Seems to be Chrome only, can't test any other browsers at the minute.
Try this when you are hovered over a link press Ctrl and click the link it'll open in a new tab every single time another option is to right click the tab you're on and duplicate it and do what ever you're going to do
I use chrome btw
I use Chrome and have been having the same issue, not exclusive to LH though, it;s been happening on any site. Closing the tab that I've been trying to open another tab from seems to resolve it from me, just means the inconvenience of having to navigate back to whatever page I was on.
Also I believe if you use a mouse with a scroll wheel clicking links with the scroll wheel will bring up links in a new tab
All the time! I've tried Chrome, IE and firefox and it happens on them all, I have to have the cursor in a soecific place to get the 'open in new link' option, I find it doesn't turn up if the cursor is quite over to the right side of the screen and lower than halfway :/
I'm using Safari and never noticed this as an issue
As my ghost said, hold the CTRL key and left click the link, this is my way of opening links in new tabs. I then view them all later.
Huh, weird that chrome just seems to have an issue! I can't say I've noticed it on other websites but I haven't needed to open a lot of tabs off another website. Had heard about the ctrl+click but of course, forgot about it until reminded here - thanks myghost and monspiper!
No worries.
My Ghost is also correct with the wheel mouse. I always forget that one until it happens then I wheel click EVERYTHING and have more tabs open than if I CTRL Clicked! :D
