    My initial external link were set to

    • Open New Tab
    • Sponsored

    I would like to update to

    • Open New Tab
    • No Follow
    • (remove Sponsored)

    I configured in the setup. But my external links are not updated.

    Example: This link is still in the old setting: https://us.amazon.com/Chassis-Restoration-Cream/dp/B0188EFWZC/

    Did you try without any other plugins active? Since you have a lot of other plugins it might be an issue with the specific environment/setup you have.

    If i deactivate other plugins, it would put my website at risk. For example, if i have rank math or other SEO plugins, wouldnt that be risky to deactivate?

    Correct. You’d need to create a clone of the site first (staging version), test things out safely and only then make changes on the live one.
