 * Hello [@jroy](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jroy/),
 * It looks like you have some 3rd party plugin or tweak that replaces `<a href="`
   to `<a target="_blank" href="` and that breaks My YouTube Channel output.
 * Try disabling that plugin/tweak and YouTube should start working again.
 * Kind regards,
   Aleksandar

 * I just check the server and there is no folder called “magnific-popup” in assets/
   lib
 * Maybe that’s why the plugin don’t work as expected now.

 * I added manually this folder from a previous version, the error disappear but
   I still have the same problem 🙁
 * by the you should update your plugin to not call this old library when the files
   are not in your plugin.

 * it works now!
   I uploaded version 3.0.12.1 of your plugin instead of the last 
   version and it works perfectly again. So the problem wasn’t a 3rd party plugin
   or tweak but the new version of your plugin.

 * Hi Jroy,
 * **I highly recommend upgrading to the latest version 2.23.4 because all previous
   versions are vulnerable.** Make sure you re-save plugin settings, just in case.
 * Please note, that Magnific Popup has been removed since version 2.23.0 and the
   original plugin version does not inquire about it. If you modified the plugin
   or made some customizations, you would need to update it to match the new HTML
   structure (eg. you targeting class ‘ytc-mfp-content’ from custom file wp-content/
   themes/phap/js/phap-script.js but in the new version that class does not exist
   anymore).
 * I would also appreciate if you provide settings of plugin and shortcode, so I
   try to replicate issue on my development stack.
 * Thank you for your assistance,
   Aleksandar
