For our website, we want all links to open in new tabs. Our QA specialist tried a URL like https://username#google.com and the page was open in the same tab. I am guessing that Safari does this for security reason, but I cannot find proof. Can someone give more context or links I can share with my team?

The website is developed in WordPress. It looks perfect on chrom/Firefox browsers but its not looking perfect on safari browser
Can someone help to understand what it the issue and how can i fix it?
If Safari doesn't load a page or webpage items are missing
Check Safari extensions, or try removing cookies, cache, and other website data if a webpage or site doesn't load on your Mac.
Use the steps in this article if this happens in Safari on your Mac:
You can’t log in to a secure website.
A webpage repeatedly reloads or redirects.
A message on a webpage tells you to remove or reset cookies.
Some images, videos, or other items aren't displayed on a webpage, but other page elements load.
Check Parental Controls
If you're logged into a user account that is restricted by Parental Controls or other web filtering software, some pages or page elements might not load if those sites aren't allowed. For example, embedded videos might not display if they're hosted on a site other than the one you're viewing.
Check with your administrator to see if you can get access to the site that you're trying to view.
Check Safari extensions
Some Safari extensions that block ads or other website content can prevent some page elements from displaying. You can temporarily turn off extensions, then re-load the page to see if this is the issue.
Choose Safari > Preferences.
Click Extensions.
Select an extension, then deselect the checkbox "Enable… extension." Repeat this step for every extension that's currently installed.
Reload the page by choosing Choose View > Reload in Safari. If the webpage loads correctly, one or more extensions was blocking the content from loading. Re-enable an extension, then reload the page again to determine which extension is blocking the content you want to view.
If the website still doesn't load with all of your extensions disabled, try the next steps in this article.
If Safari doesn't load pages from a specific site
If only one webpage or website isn't working, you can remove data related to that site to see if it fixes the issue. Use these steps to remove cookies, cache, and other data stored by Safari for a specific site:
Choose Safari > Preferences.
Click the Privacy icon.
Click the Details button.
Search for the name or domain of the website whose data you want to remove.
In the results list, click the domain (like example.com) that has data you want to remove.
Click Remove.
When you're finished, click Done and close the preferences window.
remove history, cookies, cache, website data, for a specific site
If you used the Private Browsing feature of Safari when visiting a website, you might not see the site listed here.
If Safari doesn't load pages from multiple sites
In OS X Yosemite, you can delete website data for the past hour, or past few days if websites or pages stopped loading recently.
Choose History > Clear History and Website Data.
In the sheet that appears, choose the range of data you want to remove from the Clear pop-up menu.
Click Clear History.
remove history, cookies, cache, website data
If you want to remove website data for all of the sites and pages you've ever visited, choose "all history" from the Clear pop-up menu. The option to Remove All Website Data in the Privacy pane of Safari preferences does this, too. These options also reset your browsing history and Top Sites.
Requirement:
Show the Visit Website link for the VAST clickThrough. By default in we desktop, whole ima3 container is clickable and redirecting to clickThrough url. Is there anyway to show the clickThrough url like youtube?
Note
I have tried with custom click element. But it will only for web mobile. In the web desktop it won't work.

I was going back and forth with Spotify Cares Twitter for over four days. Finally they directed me here, so I hope one of the devs from Spotify will answer.
I am trying to put Spotify Play Button on the website. I was following the instructions from the documentation. Then I also found on the Spotify blog, that some details had changed in July 2018. So I have tried this code as well.
Whatever I did, the Play Button embed player plays only preview (30 seconds) when accessing website in the Chrome (version 68 and 69).
The code is simple and straight taken from the documentation/blog:
<iframe src="https://open.spotify.com/embed?uri=spotify:album:1DFixLWuPkv3KT3TnV35m3" width="300" height="380" frameborder="0" allowtransparency="true" allow="encrypted-media"></iframe>
This code I have put into the empty HTML, so completely no other code interfering. You can check it in the example on Codepen.
I have tried to isolate the issue and here's what I have found:
In Chrome it never works: neither when I am logged into Spotify nor when I am not and log in with the button that shows up in the player
In Chrome with/without SSL - in both cases it didn't work
In Firefox it works properly. When I log into Spotify on the browser, go to the page, it plays full tracks
Also asked my friends to go to the page with this code and - being logged into Spotify - it didn't work for them as well
The play button works properly in the examples on blog and documentation of Spotify - which is in their domain, so it is the same domain as the iframe content - this is a hint I think.
I have checked also recent changes in Chrome, but only one concerning iframe was adding allow on microphone and camera. Even using this one didn't help (but this should not be related actually).
I have also checked on recent Safari / MacOS - the issue is there as well (but not on Firefox/MacOS)
What can be the reason for the issue? How to solve this? Or maybe Spotify devs team need to fix it?
So the answer is quite obvious if you know where to look.
Under chrome://settings/content/cookies Google Chrome has this option Block third-party cookies. I had it enabled and that was the cause of the issue.
But why I didn't think of it before? It's because Google Chrome in such case adds to all non-white-listed (see below) sites a cookie icon with red X to the right side of the Address Bar. When one clicks it, it shows two options:
Always allow [url of the site] site to save cookies
Keep blocking the cookies
And since I had the first one selected it looked good to me back then.
But this option is not the same as "allow use of the third-party cookies", which is not available in the popup options window.
In fact to allow sites to use cookies from Spotify, you have to either:
Disable the option Block third-party cookies in the Chrome Settings in general
or add [*.]spotify.com to your white-list (I recommend this one)
And that way, any site can access spotify.com cookies to check if user is logged in to properly play music (full tracks or just previews).
And one final note: the site with the embed play button code must be accessed with SSL, so via https.
I didn't check how to change that for Safari on MacOS, but probably the solution is similar to this one.
I am getting error that
This page is trying to load scripts from unauthenticated sources
after doing SSL from SSL for free
how to solve please help
This usually happens when your page has link href tag connected to a website which doesn't have SSL.
If you want to check these href links:-
On your computer, open Chrome.
Go to your website.
At the top right, click More (vertical triple dots).
Click More tools and then Developer tools.
In the right sidebar, at the top, click Console.
Here you'll see which scripts are trying to load from unauthenticated sources.
so I have finally designed a website and have currently hosted it on 000webhost for free. I wanted to optimize this website using Google Webmaster Tools, but I face a problem when it comes to the Data Highlighting section. This is because Google renders my website with a popup advertisement.
I have tried numerous ways to rid of this advertisement so that Google will not render it, but have failed. I wanted to know if there is any way in which to remove this popup advertisement permanently from my website, while still having it hosted freely, so that I can complete the Data Highlighting of the website using Google Webmaster Tools.
Please help me. Thank you.
