Can Safari open multiple links at once?

Long time user ... new user name. I'm a die hard sports fan and I like to wake up every morning and check the box scores. Lately I've been getting angry that I have to click each game and then back up to click on the next game. Is there a way to highlight or select several different links and open them up in tabs/windows all at once? I know I can use the hotkey to open up a new tab when I click on a link but I just thought it would be nice to choose all of the games (or news links ... whatever) and press the button once. Any info? Thanks

*Hi Flowen, Welcome* to Apple's Users Help Users Forums. 🙂

Here's the best that I have. Open a Folder in Bookmarks. Load the URLs into the Folder. At the bottom, under a line will be "Open (all) in Tabs." For me they all open almost as fast as just a single one. They will open open one at a time so you will still need to click on the new tab to get it to open. Not exactly what you wanted but ...

Good Luck, JP 🙂

Hi,

Try holding shift+command to open the new tabs - this will open the tabs but leave you on the original page without changing focus so you can quickly open all the scores you're interested in.

Good tip, iBod!

But to the OP, no, there's no way to +"highlight or select several different links and open them up in tabs/windows all at once."+ Each link must be clicked.
