After Last Update: Social-ShareButtons are not linking into NEW Window

Hello @leogc,

I fully examined the issue you have raised on this topic and could not see it on my end. How can we replicate your steps to arrive at the issue on a fresh WordPress installation?

For troubleshooting, please deactivate all your plugins and let the MEC remain active only, set your theme on default, then reload the page, if the issue was solved, then activate your plugins one by one and your theme, refresh your page and check to see which plugin is causing the issue.

Please keep us informed,

Best Regards

I noticed same problem. When you try social share single event on facebook on example, you are redirected to facebook in same window not in new window as it was before.

@webnus

i tried this all, otherwise i would not open a topic, something in your script did not open the social share links in a new window, even the newest update did not delete this problem.

Thir problem causes with: facebook, linkedin, pinterest, telegram and whatsapp as i can see it.

Attached a picture from the surcecode which shows that target=”_blank” is missing in facebook i.E. in twitter this target is there…

Info: Update to Version 6.5.1 has not changed anything same “problem” exist.

Hello @webnus

after the last Update to 6.5.2 some of the Social-Share Buttons are now open in a new window again, but not all!

Pinterest, Telegram and WhatsApp are still not working correctly, all this open in the same window and this means Vistors leave the website for nothing. Please check this again and fix it in the next Update! Thanks!
