 * Hello [@pizi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pizi/),
 * That’s an issue that has already been reported to our developers.
    NextGen’s 
   feature image doesn’t work with the Classic Editor. Thank you so much for sharing,
   we will add this forum thread to the bug report.
 * In the meantime, you can try switching to Gutenberg, and that should work.
    Please,
   keep us posted.

 * Very strange, when I deactivate NextGEN Gallery, all of my image links open properly
   in a new tab.
 * There are many picture links!? – Another editor won’t help here either, since
   everything is stored correctly with html “target =” _ blank “.
 * Has worked for years, it’s probably just a small bug.
 * greetings from Austria 🙂
