Description

Add target="_blank" rel="nofollow" to all links in the chat history window. It is annoying to click a link in a chat and have it unload Open-Webui, so I added this feature. (This)[https://github.com/markedjs/marked/issues/655#issuecomment-383226346] issue in the marked repo describes how to do this properly.

This only applies to links within chat messages. For example, asking a model what is the URL of https://google.com? and clicking the link in your message or the one it produces.

Changelog Entry

Changed

Links in chat open in a new tab instead of the same tab
