External links in activity stream

Is there a way to setup the following features in Buddypress:

1. Open internal links (posts, images) in same tab
2. Open external links in new tab / window?

This would be a very useful feature for everyone I think, but I can’t find a way to set it up.

The easiest solution is to use JavaScript here.

Based on this: https://css-tricks.com/snippets/jquery/target-only-external-links/
You can do like this:
```
jQuery(document).ready(function(){
jQuery('#activity-stream a').filter(function() {
   return this.hostname && this.hostname !== location.hostname;
}).attr("target", "_blank");
});
```
You should add this to js file of your theme of plugin.
