One more Shopify thing from this week, and this time it's good news.
Since 20 October your storefront asks the customer to confirm before it sends them to a website outside your store. They see the address and can continue or go back.
Shopify's note on it is two lines long: https://changelog.shopify.com/posts/new-protection-against-unexpected-redirects
Connected domains and the supported Shopify and social sites don't get the message. But a site you own and never connected to the store can. Old blog on another domain, booking page, wholesale shop.
So click every link in your header and footer before November. A warning screen on your own link looks worse than no link.
