Steve Jabba Posted May 31, 2021 Posted May 31, 2021 (edited) I'm using adblocker plus, and it's blocking ALL of my affiliate links on my forum. Example : To be fair, it does this on Youtube too when you enter links in the description of videos. Needless to say this is far from ideal. I note when you use wordpress the links still work, at least when you embed them in a button. And yes, I have tested and confirmed this, and I am sure. Example : So is there any way around this?? It has the potential to kill monetisation on your sites. Edited May 31, 2021 by Steve Jabba

It must be a setting in the theme somewhere..
Solution SeNioR- Posted May 31, 2021 Solution Posted May 31, 2021 (edited) Steve, go to ACP --> SYSTEM --> Settings --> Posting. Now go to Links Tab. Uncheck "Force posted links to open in new windows?" Edited May 31, 2021 by SeNioR- Steve Jabba 1

Uncheck "Force posted links to open in new windows?" setting. You the man dude! I thought it was related to opening in new window, but didn't know how to turn it off. It's working now! Great!
