WTH is settings tab functionality broken?

Month of "What the heck?!"

On basically all links, like the Home Assistant sidebar for example, you just hold CTRL/CMD or right click to open them in a new tab.

Settings is instead made in a really backwards way, with Javascript or something. Feels like a Flash project almost where things like right click doesn’t work - you must instead open each URL manually for every single tab of Settings you want to open, which is a massive pain.

I wish I could Ctrl+Click on links in settings too. Right now I have to duplicate the tab, wait for it to load, and then find the item I want to click on again. Supporting Ctrl+Click in settings and the rest of the UI would be a huge improvement.

Yeah, it’s such a huge issue that should be simple to fix

All things are famously “easy to fix/implement/design” until you actually get into it.

Nice observation, I didn´t even know you could use CTR+Click to duplicate the tab from the sidebar!

Thanks, learning all the time… :wink:

Sort of, but we’re talking about making links with a proper a HTML tag instead of through JS here, it doesn’t get much simpler.

It’s more complicated than you’re making it. This has been brought up before.
