Iframe Links

[MattConway]

I have a google slide on my front page in an iframe with links to assignments.  By default they open in a new window.  How can i get them to open in the parent window.  https://canvas.instructure.com/courses/6145115/pages/derby-public-school-strategic-planning-guide

Good morning, @MattConway ...

Do the links in your slide (which you say point to assignments) absolutely need to be within your slide?  Assuming that these links are pointing to Canvas assignments, why not include those links above or below the slide you've embedded via iFrame?  You can create links to your assignments via the RCE (Rich Content Editor), and they won't open up in a new tab/window.

How do I create hyperlinks to course or group cont... - Instructure Community (canvaslms.com)

Please keep us posted here in the Community...thanks!

I was hoping to have links on the image as opposed to off the image. I have seen this design on Harvard's Canvas page and liked to layout.

@MattConway ...

I see.  I understand why you'd want to do something similar if you saw something you liked from another course.  One thing to keep in mind is that if you included the links above/below your slide (so not as to put them in the slide itself), when you copy/import the content into a new semester course, Canvas should update those links for you automatically with no extra work on your part.  If you include those links within your Google slide, then you have to update those links each semester.  Just a thought for you...for what it's worth.
