  I recently started wordpress. Somewhere along the way, there was a link that offered me the ability to make each click open in a new tab. I enabled it, but now I see that’s very problematic. Everyone who sees my site says they can’t deal with it.

  HOW DO I FIND THAT OPTION AGAIN?! It’s like it doesn’t exist!

  Here’s my site: https://bonnjorrmusic.wordpress.com/

  And I know there’s another topic about this, but the repliers did not answer the guy’s question.

  Please help!

  Hello,

  I see what you are talking about. Please try going into Customize -> Menus ->From here click into each menu item and uncheck the Open link in a new tab.

  Give that a try and let me know if you have any questions.

  I hope this helps and good luck!

  One last thing, I noticed that your WELCOME menu item is still opening in a new tab. Just wanted you to be aware of that.
