Originally assigned to: @maziggy on GitHub.

Bug Description

I configured an external link to launch my instance of Spoolman (see config below) but when I click on it in the left-navbar it doesn't launch a new tab or window and instead looks like it tries to open a url path within Bambuddy and the right pane says 'spoolman.domain.us refused to connect'

External Link: http://spoolman.mydomain.us (routes through my dns and traefik proxy)
Clicking link tries to open: http://bambuddy.mydomain.us/external/1

The documentation indicates there should be an option to open in a new tab, but I don't see any such option in the UX.
Using IP:Port to my spoolman service works and renders the spoolman webpage in the right frame
Using a public url (google.com) also has the same behavior: 'google.com refused to connect'

I assume perhaps this might have to do with routing through my proxy/dns, since the IP:Port works, but would prefer to be able to use DNS names and prefer to launch a new tab (or at least have that option).

Expected Behavior

I expect

a choice to open an external link in a new tab
dns-name URLS to work (both internal network URLs and external)

Steps to Reproduce

The documentation indicates there should be an option to open in a new tab, but I don't see any such option in the UX.
Using IP:Port to my spoolman service works and renders the spoolman webpage in the right frame
Using a public url (google.com) also has the same behavior: 'google.com refused to connect'

Available in branch 0.2.0b. Please let me know if it works for you.

Each external link now has an "Open in new tab" toggle in the add/edit modal. When enabled, clicking the sidebar link (or using keyboard shortcuts) opens the URL directly in a new browser tab instead of the iframe — avoiding X-Frame-Options / CSP frame-ancestors blocking from reverse proxies.

Default remains iframe for backward compatibility with existing links.
