links on blog redirecting to a 404 on phones
-
I have a lot of links that function fine on a desktop/laptop, but not on a phone. Well, the first link I click on does work, but any subsequent clicks do not.
For instance, on this page – https://weavingmajor.wordpress.com/2025/01/04/tartan-fabrics-printed-at-spoonflower/ – the first link is to https://www.spoonflower.com/collections/206568-1-6-scale-tartans-other-doll-scale-designs-by-weavingmajor – and on my laptop the link works fine. If I try to click on it on my phone, it redirects me through several sites and ends up at members.cj.com/member/404.htm.
If instead of clicking on the link, I bookmark the link, it shows up as https://go.skimresources.com/?id=725X1342&isjs=1&jv=15.7.1&sref=https%3A%2F%2Fweavingmajor.wordpress.com%2F2025%2F01%2F04%2Ftartan-fabrics-printed-at-spoonflower%2F&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.spoonflower.com%2Fcollections%2F206568-1-6-scale-tartans-other-doll-scale-designs-by-weavingmajor&xs=1&xtz=300&xuuid=1c8618d0fce22d293a74e97d17251d99&xcust=8982&xjsf=other_click__touchstart%20%5B%5D
It looks like the site is trying to redirect through skimresources, which I understand may be the cost of a free blog, and hopefully generating some income for WordPress… except it never makes it to Spoonflower at the end of the redirect! Is there anything you can do to fix that, or anything I should be doing differently at my end?
This failed redirect happened on my Apple phone (both on Safari and a freshly downloaded Firefox) – and also on my son’s Android phone – so I don’t think it’s a malware issue, but rather something hanging up in the redirect.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

does anyone have any help or suggestions? Two weeks later and the failed redirects are still happening from my phone when I click on the links in my blog.
