Accessible External Link

Security covered Under active development 52 sites

Part of the External ecosystem · 22 projects

This module enhances the accessibility of external links by automatically adding visual cues like "Open in new window" text, CSS classes, or HTML suffixes. It can also add `_blank`, `noopener`, and `noreferrer` attributes to external links for better security and user experience.

This rather low-level module is only used to add some accessibility extra data behind the hood like an "Open in new window" visually hidden text, some extra CSS classes or even HTML suffix to external links based on URL pattern or target _blank attribute. The module's formatter and WYSIWYG filter can automatically add a target _blank attribute to external URLs.

The module can also add noopener and noreferrer rel attributes to external links.
