This is a follow-up on this previous topic: https://toolset.com/forums/topic/split-the-my-account-page-is-shown-instead-of-the-login-form-edit-form-not-working

Thank you, Minesh, for showing me how to make the content-templates appear.

I had one of my customers use the edit template, and she finds it a little irritating that right now, the content template opens in the middle of the existing custom post type.

How can I open the content template for editing in a new tab?
I seem to remember that this was how it worked with a standard WP theme, before I switched to a FSE theme.

Your help is much appreciated.

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Well - if you want to edit content template separately, you should open a new tab and navigate to:
=> Toolset => Content Templates and

Once you locate your desired content template and edit the desired content template

Sorry, no.

What I mean is this: On my website, I list many shops where customers can buy textile goods like fabric and thread, or services like tailoring and knitting.

When a shop owner creates a user account, I associate their shop with their user account, so they can edit their shop's informations, opening hours, images etc.

Users find it irritating, that at the moment, the edit form opens in the middle of the existing shop informations. (see screenshot). I want the editing form to open in a new tab, or popup. Not embedded in the page. Do you know what I mean?

How can I achieve this?

Have you added edit post link or you are directly displaying the form on your page?

[gabrieleB]

I had an "edit post link" on the page, and still have, ("Bearbeiten" at the top of the content template means "edit"). This link stopped working when I switched to an FSE theme.

In the previous topic (https://toolset.com/forums/topic/split-the-my-account-page-is-shown-instead-of-the-login-form-edit-form-not-working) you inserted some conditional code to display the edit form directly on the page.

But I would love the "edit post link" to work again, and open on a new page ("_blank"), as it was before.

Can you help me?
Do you still have the credentials to access my staging website?

Can you please share problem URL and admin access details and let me check what could be the possible option.

*** Please make a FULL BACKUP of your database and website.***
I would also eventually need to request temporary access (WP-Admin and FTP) to your site. Preferably to a test site where the problem has been replicated if possible in order to be of better help and check if some configurations might need to be changed.

I have set the next reply to private which means only you and I have access to it.

On the following content template:
- hidden link

I've adjusted the post edit link from:

<p>[toolset-edit-post-link content_template_slug='template-zum-aendern-von-orten-fuer-admins' target='_blank']edit for admins[/toolset-edit-post-link]</p>

To:

<p>[toolset-edit-post-link content_template_slug='template-zum-aendern-von-orten-fuer-admins' target='blank']edit for admins[/toolset-edit-post-link]</p>

The only difference is underscore that I deleted and adjusted it to: target='blank'

More info:
- https://toolset.com/documentation/programmer-reference/forms/cred-shortcodes/#toolset-edit-post-link

target. Optional. Defines the window in which the link will be opened. This can be the current window (self), top window (top), or a new window (blank). Defaults to self.

I hope the above changed help you to fixed the issue.
