Extensions for Joomla! 4.x • Tags and Weblinks - Directly open linked file

$

I am not sure if this should be in the Extensions or Template area.

At the url below there is a tag at the top left called "Big Picture Pubs". It leads to a table showing a list of tagged weblinks.

Clicking on a link in the table leads only to the weblink title and the url connected to the weblink - in this case a link to publications held on Google Drive. To access the publication you obviously follow the url displayed.

I would like to remove this middle step and provide for the link in the table to directly access and open the publication in a new tab. I have used tags in articles, and positioned in modules using the menu item url, across the site. All the places and ways I have used them give the same outcome. I cannot see any Option in the tag component to change the way tagged items are displayed.

I note that weblinks I have used elsewhere have the term "task=weblink.go.........." within the url (and I know this provides direct access to the item) and those in the tag table do not.

I assume a template override will address the issue - but while I sort of understand the process by which overrides are created I do not understand php. I have looked through what I think are the relevant template tables and cannot see any code that may be relevant, and even if I did see it would not know how to amend it to get the outcome I want.

Can anyone help me here please?

Richard
