 * Although under **Feed to Post** and **Link Settings**, I have selected **Target
   Window** -> **Open in New Window**, for about 20% of posts I am seeing the link
   open with LightBox. My website is [SlovenskeNovice.com](http://slovenskenovice.com).
   I haven’t added any fancy additional code or specs that would override something
   like this. Any clues as to why this is happening?

 * I am also experiencing a problem where my settings are set to “open in new window”
   yet posts are now opening in the same window. Any idea what might have caused
   this or how to fix it?

 * fyi, all the plugin does is set up the possibility for opening up in a new window…
   the browser actually determines whether this will happen or not. And in addition,
   I can’t tell what’s going on since I don’t know what links are giving you problems…
   you will need to be more specific for me to help.

 * My website is [SlovenskeNovice.com](http://www.slovenskenovice.com), a Slovenian
   language news aggregator. Some of my links under certain categories seem to not
   be opening in a new tab/window – for example, the ones under ‘Kultura’ and ‘Zdravje’.
   Where do you think the problem lies in my case?

 * are you using different shortcode for the sections that are not opening in a 
   new tab/window? It looks like this is what might be happening.
