Links to cross-origin destinations are unsafe (web.dev)

    Running the web.dev (Lighthouse) audit against a page built using Gutentor, it states that “Links to cross-origin destinations are unsafe” (see https://web.dev/external-anchors-use-rel-noopener/).

    Would you consider adding the rel=”noopener” or rel=”noreferrer” to external links to prevent that and improve security? Or an option for that when editing URLs?

    Thanks a lot!

    Hello @krzd7,

    We have already Gutentor Advanced Link Options, I think the options cover all of your points. We may have missed somewhere, if you can provide us with the Gutentor Block Name, we will fix it on the coming version.

    Best Regards!

    Hello,

    Sorry, my bad. The advanced text block indeed has this option, but the whole situation was caused because of a single URL that I forgot to mark to open in a new tab, so WordPress was not adding the rel=”noreferrer noopener”.

    Thanks a lot!
