Sweet, thanks! It's all about those quotation marks, isn't it!

That's right,let's hope that they don't change this behavior in future releases!

Thank you so much for this! I agree, I hope future updates don't break this.

Alternatively, you can add a script to the index.js file of your Ghost theme to get all your links to open in a new tab: https://gist.github.com/hid...

This answer on StackOverflow ( http://stackoverflow.com/a/... ) makes it really simple to open links that are outside your own site in new tabs. For instance, just add it inside a <script> tag in your default.hbm file. It works like a charm and won't break your links in case of future ghost updates. Besides, you can just keep using plain markdown to create the links.

Thanks for spotting this. While moving from ghost to static generation something must have gone wrong. You can still read the workaround here: http://web.archive.org/web/...

I will restore the original content asap.

Old page is up again.

As an aside. I am no longer using ghost, can you please let me know if this trick is still working?
