External links don’t work when site is viewed on Instagram
-
Hello!
This one is a bit of a mystery to me. My client’s site lists external links in her blog posts. When viewed on the Instagram platform (via her site link in profile), the external links in the post snippets on the main page work, but not on the specific blog post.
The only time external links work on both is if we remove ‘target=_blank’. However, we’ve tested other bloggers’ on WordPress sites and have found all of their external links work (both on the main page and blog post page) EVEN WITH ‘target=_blank’.
You can see what I mean by logging into Instagram on your phone. Visit this profile https://goo.gl/WMgB77 >> Click her web link >> Scroll down to the second post (‘Sunflower Summer…’) >> Read More >> Click any of the links in Outfit Details.
For some reason, they won’t load. This is the same for every post (except for the first post – we removed ‘target=_blank’ on the links in this one). Any help on why this might be would be MUCH appreciated!
