Hi,

I don't know what happened. But all of the internal links on my website have now these two tags on them.
Can you please let me know how to fix that?

Hi there,

WP adds those attributes for any link that is set to open in a new tab.
Their required to stop potential a security vulnerability.

So All internal links should stay that way?

And i dont want to disable Disable rel=”noopener”.....

Just want to disable noreferrer.. because (and correct me if I am wrong here) it stops me to see the flow of visitors from one page to other on Analytics.
