    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,
