Opening Links in New Tab
-
Hi,
When I right-click on a link, then 'open link in new tab', the browser is opening the link in the new tab- but I don't actually want to GO TO the new tab... I want to remain on the tab where I right-clicked. Is there a setting somewhere to make this happen?
Thanks -

Hi, I am not aware of a setting for this, I use middle mouse click, you can use Ctrl+Click too.
The context menu include open link in background tab, which does the same but middle click is much faster for me.Cheers, mib
EDIT: Wrong shortcut changed. -
@merrick777 I use Ctrl+click to open new background tabs.
In the context menu, choose Open Link in Background Tab - the clue here is background.
You can even edit the link context menu, remove the new tab entry and rename the background entry how you like:

Perfect!! This is exactly what I needed - thank you!

Also you can use the middle mouse button to click on a link, to open it in the background

Hi, i want to ask,
How to stay in existing Tab, after choosing link to opening in new tab ? i want not shift to opened new tab automatically,, until i like to go there .. -
@Ansyaa Try Ctrl+Click or Middle-click on the link. Better still, assign mouse gestures to:
- Open Link in New Tab (Over a Link)
- Open Link in Background Tab (Over a Link)
I use GestureUp and GestureDown respectively.

Ctrl+Click
as usual, vivaldi direct me to new tab automatically where link opened,,
i want to remain in existing tab
, not go to tab where link opened.... -
@Ansyaa No, Ctrl+Click opens a webpage link in a new background tab.
Right-click, Open Link in Background Tab, is yet another method.

By default:
- Shift + left mouse Click → Vivaldi will open link in new Tab and Focus on the Tab
- Ctrl + Shift + left mouse Click → open link in new Window and Focus on it
Q: Are there way change the settings somehow?
P.S. How it goes that other main browser leaders (Firefox, Microsoft Edge and Chrome) have the settings vice versa?! Perhaps Vivaldi suggest more better way but... why can't I change the settings to my convenience?!
