NOT UPDATED
I can't give a review because when I went to install this on my site it is an old version. Tells me that this plugin, no-opener, isn't tested on the new version of WordPress, 4.8.1 which I have installed and probably most of you do too. Seems like the author has given up on users. Some of these old versions are a security risk.

Great plugin!
The plugin is really simple to install and use and it works like charm! Once we activated it the rel=”noopener noreferrer” was no longer added to new links set to open in new window. Just a friendly note, if you can add an option to search and replace the existing posts/pages for the tag and remove it that would be great! Thanks again for the useful plugin!
