3 years ago Hi @RafalSzrajnert
I am testing.
Using a local site running the theme: Twenty Twenty One.
WordPress: 5.6.1
Gutenberg plugin 9.8.4 and no other plugins activated. I also deactivated the Gutenberg plugin and had no plugins activated.
Testing in Chrome.
- Creating a new post.
- Adding the Image block.
- Adding an image from the Media Library.
- Clicked the link icon.
- I could not see any included link.
See the above test instructions I wrote. It would be great if you can do something similar. Deactivate all plugins except Gutenberg. Switch to a default theme such as Twenty Twenty One. Then see if the link is still present after adding an image.

Description
long version on wp forum: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/do-not-open-image-from-post-when-i-click-on-it/,
but here I try to make it short. after update to 5.6 in december I have automatic hyperlink added to my posts when I choose "image" youtube short vid from my phone, you can see there is already link: https://youtu.be/rrehRidHd3Q
example of blog post: https://uniqueseo.pl/co-to-jest-blog/
It is adding hyperlink only to new posts, did not applied it to older ones
and hyperlink is added only in "image"
when I add for example "media and text" there is no link automatically added, which is correct behaviour, because using "image" I have to delete every link, and I use photos a lot
Step-by-step reproduction instructions
I have been advised to try old editor and when I delete link it remembers last action, which is correct and next photos have no "a href" after upload,
but when I swith back to new editor lik is added everytime
so i switched my theme to default WP theme, and switched off all plugins but...
it did not help!
what helped was when I downloaded this plugin https://pl.wordpress.org/plugins/wp-downgrade/ and went back to 5.5.3 version and problem dissapeared!
Expected behaviour
no automatically inserted hyperlink when i add "image"
Actual behaviour
adding hyperlink to image every time, then I have to delete it on every photo i use in blog post
Screenshots or screen recording (optional)
I already pastet this youtube from phone https://youtu.be/rrehRidHd3Q no need for better quality I think, just to show that is is added automatically
Code snippet (optional)
WordPress information
Device information
last thing, maybe I just pasted long time ago some code to my wordpress php or something that now is affecting this? but I doubt. I know other people do not have this problem but as I said I switched all plugins and theme and problem still persisted. If you will need some code from me or access just let me know.
and suggestion from WP moderator: But it may not get much traction if the issue cannot be reproduced by others. It might make more sense to frame it as an enhancement where whatever option was used last is the default behavior.
