When I post to X (Twitter) , the post shows a link , but when I click it, it just returns back to X , instead of going to your website? Apparently, X now blocks or loops the link back to itself – it will not allow affiliate links or redirects. Is there an answer to this else, TA Plugin is redundant? Many Thanks Hey there, Thanks for your contact! I’ve just posted a link on my Twitter account, then tried to visit the TA link through this tweet, but the redirection worked without problems. Perhaps am I missing some fundamental actions to reproduce the issue? Could you please let me know the exact step-by-step you’re following? Looking forward to your reply. Thanks! All the best, Hi, Thanks for your reply. When I post a ThirstyAffiliates link to X (for example: https://www.mysite.com/go/cars/ ), clicking the link results in X blocking the redirect and preventing it from reaching the target. I don’t want to rely on a third-party URL shortener. Does ThirstyAffiliates provide any built-in alternative link method or redirect type that would avoid this issue? Thanks. Hi @rik0399 , Sorry for the delayed response! I am still unable to replicate this issue. My TA link posted in Twitter/X works just fine, so it shouldn’t be necessary any ‘built-in’ method to make this function properly. That leads me to ask the following questions: does it happen to all of your links or only a specific one, or ones? can you please test in an incognito tab or a different browser? you mentioned about redirect types. Perhaps you can try out these options in the Edit screen of the TA links: https://share.zight.com/12uZ50GO and see if any of them help? I am looking forward to your reply. Thanks,
