Can we please have a way to open journals via Mods and Macros? Thanks

Hi MidNiteShadow7,  When you say "journals" do you mean Handouts? Characters? PDFs? something else? 
Hi Gauss, yes, handouts under the Journals tab

Ahhh ok. Just to make sure you know the current options: You can open them by clicking the associated hyperlink. That link can be in a handout, bio & info tab, or the chat tab.  Alas, a Macro won't cut it (other than to pop it into chat where you can click it). Might be a good suggestion, although I suspect it wouldn't be possible. There are some things that the user must click on to activate the browser. 
Where are the associated hyperlinks?  There is no visible hyperlink on the handout, and using the IDs in a forced link hasn't worked for me either.

You can create hyperlinks in a handout by putting the name of the destination character or handout in square brackets.&nbsp; Example: [George McFly] You can then right click on a link and copy the link in the normal fashion to put it elsewhere.&nbsp; Source:&nbsp; <a href="https://wiki.roll20.net/Handout#Link_Between_Journal_Entries" rel="nofollow">https://wiki.roll20.net/Handout#Link_Between_Journal_Entries</a>
The request is for that functionality that you have the ability to link to a Journal via Mods, chat and macros. The linking only works in a journal to another journal.

My purpose was to get you something today...rather than who knows when.&nbsp; But as a note, once you get the link posting the link in chat via macro, mods, or copy/paste will work in Chat, but you still have to click on it.&nbsp;

If you can get the links working through a mod so a Journal handout can be opened, I'll give you a big sloppy kiss! 😘😉
