External Link Confirmation (Flarum)
===================================

[](#external-link-confirmation-flarum)

This extension shows a confirmation modal before opening external links posted anywhere in the forum.

Features
--------

[](#features)

- Confirmation modal for external links
- Whitelist support (domains without confirmation)
- Automatically excludes the forum's own domain
- Shows the destination URL in the modal

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

```
composer require devmindslab/link-redirect-confirm

```

Configuration
-------------

[](#configuration)

Set a whitelist in the Admin panel (comma-separated). Wildcards are supported via `*.example.org`.

By default, the forum's own domain is always allowed.

Whitelist behavior
------------------

[](#whitelist-behavior)

Whitelisted domains skip the confirmation modal and open in the same tab. Non-whitelisted external links show the modal and open in a new tab after confirmation.

If you want whitelisted external links to also open in a new tab, you can optionally combine this extension with the Flarum extension walsgit/external-links-in-new-tab.

That extension forces all external links to open in a new tab and works well together with this confirmation extension.

You can install it via Composer using `composer require walsgit/external-links-in-new-tab`.

Translations
------------

[](#translations)

The extension ships with German and English translations located in `resources/locale/de.yml` and `resources/locale/en.yml`.

Additional languages can easily be added by copying `en.yml` and translating the strings.

Styling
-------

[](#styling)

You can fully customize the modal via LESS variables, e.g.:

- `--link-redirect-confirm-modal-max-width`
- `--link-redirect-confirm-modal-padding`
- `--link-redirect-confirm-modal-radius`
- `--link-redirect-confirm-modal-bg`
- `--link-redirect-confirm-header-bg`
- `--link-redirect-confirm-title-color`
- `--link-redirect-confirm-body-color`
- `--link-redirect-confirm-overlay-bg`
- `--link-redirect-confirm-buttons-gap`
