    Hello,

    On my affiliate website, I use nofollow and sponsored tags for links, but I noticed that the “noreferrer” tag is automatically added without my knowledge.

    How can I disable the “noreferrer” tag that is automatically added to external links? Whenever I select any rel attribute like nofollow, open in a new window, or sponsored, the “noreferrer” tag is automatically included.

    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math and bringing your concern to our attention.

    Please note that the noreferrer tag is automatically added to the links that open in a new tab by WordPress, and this is not controlled or affected by Rank Math in any way.

    By default, Rank Math only adds the rel="noopener" to your external links. To add the noreferrer, you will need to set it to open in a new tab.

    You can check this link for more information:

    Looking forward to helping you.
