Embedded WordPress posts not working anymore

    Few days ago, this was working fine. Site was still running on old WordPress 5.4.x Then I updated all my plugins, theme, and then WordPress to 5.5.3. Now I can see that embedded posts on a page are not showing up properly.

    Theme I am using is Themegrill ColorMag. Before update, this page was showing posts featured images, not it doesn’t. Links do not work. Tried from different browsers and computer/mobile. Looking at page source, links are marked as “restricted”.

    When I edit the page, use the preview in new tab, links are working. When I save and look as normal user, they don’t. But right click and open in new tab works.

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    It looks like the links in those embedded posts are using target=”_top”, which would make it open in the top-most frame. However, frames are obsolete now, so the links aren’t going to do anything.

    I don’t know that theme, but if there’s a setting on those embeds so the links open in a new tab, that should do it.

    Are you using Embed Post plugin? Or something else?

    I always thought that it is native WordPress (gutenberg) embedding system, I never installed any plugin just to do that. If it’s not, I have some other plugins that might put it there, like Elementor, EA, Youtube embed etc.

    I have no idea how this worked before, but when I look at HTML now, it is:

    <figure class="wp-block-embed-wordpress wp-block-embed is-type-wp-embed is-provider-perforum"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
https://www.perforum.info/1-relativna-lokacija--izvorni-princip-permakulturnog-dizajna/
</div></figure>

    It might be somehow related to this issue:

    But anyway, until I found why this is happening and how to fix it, I have installed plugin https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/insert-pages/

    I need to rewrite the page from initial post to look as I prefer, luckily there is only one page created with that style on whole site.
