Currently when adding a link to a button element in the slider, clicking it will open the URL in a new browser window. This is very inconvenient especially if the link is to an anchor point further down on the page, there should be an option to select whether the link opens in a new window or the same.

Hey there 👋

Glad to tell you that button link can be opened in the same tab now. This option is enabled by default:
