AssetStore notifications window doesn’t allow you to open links into new tab (with middle mouse button).. for every link, you need to:
10 –<\/em> Click your profile icon to open drop down menu
20 –<\/em> Click notifications button
30 –<\/em> Scroll down the list to find interesting item
40 –<\/em> Click single item to navigate into that page (within current page)
50 –<\/em> Goto 10 (do everything again for each item and wait page loads..)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Workaround:<\/strong>
use browser plugin to inject middle mouse button events into those items!

GreaseMonkey script:<\/strong>

How it works:<\/strong>
– custom script is injected into asset store page
– it overrides XMLHttpRequest to catch notification list contents when it gets requested (this is required, since the div itself doesnt contain enough info to create store link)
– from received JSON data, notification item key image id and asset store item ID is parsed
– then on 2nd pass, notification list items are iterated through, each div gets middle mouse button click event added, with url to be opened in new tab for that asset<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
