I don’t know if this is just a temporary glitch or what........ but previously I have been able to click on the infolinks tab, which would redirect me to their site, where I could “opt out”.
Today, nothing happens when I click on the tab, so I am unable to opt out.
Anyone else having this issue?

Also, trying to visit Moparts on my cell phone is something I no longer can due to Infolinks. Not only can I not get rid of it on my phone. but it also eats up half the screen making viewing more trouble than it's worth.

Some browsers (don't recall which off hand) sometimes require installation as well as authorization. You must enable the browser extension. Firefox is my daily driver browser, works perfectly on Windows 10, 11 and Linuxmint. If you're interested in switching browsers, Brave and I believe Opera have built in ad block capabilities.

Just to reiterate.......
Up until today, all I had to do was click on the infolinks tab, which would redirect me to their site, where I would opt out..... and I was good to go. No more infolinks pop-ups.
Today, clicking on the infolinks tab no longer redirects me anywhere, so there is no way to opt out.
I’m just wondering if anyone else is experiencing this new situation.

I’m using an iPhone, and up until today, the opt out thing has worked fine.
However, if this is the new norm, my participation will be less.

However, if this is the new norm, my participation will be less. I had a very similar experience with standard Safari Bowser on my iPad. For awhile “opt out” worked with Safari, but required frequent returns to “opt out”. I tried different iOS browsers and settled on Brave which works well but recently I had to go “opt out” at infolinks while using Brave browser to get rid of an “empty window” that infolinks began opening. This window had no ad visible, just a line outlining a box with nothing inside. Clicking the “opt out” button made the empty window quit popping up. It is not just Moparts, infolinks is “infecting” more older websites I visit

Well, I just tried duck duck go....... no infolinks, but the site is essentially unusable on my phone.
You open a thread and the page just jumps around for a while and if/when that stops........ you’re at the bottom of the page.......and no response in trying to page up.

Does the same to me on any platform. The infostinks makes this website borderline unusable. I can only tolerate MoParts on a work computer, and even then it’s still pretty awful. Shouldn’t have to use the “right” browser or ad blocker just to read a forum.

Opting out doesn’t work, still get the stupid pop ups.

I’ve continued to attempt to “opt out” when I visit this site....... and this morning, it worked like it has in the past.
It’s like someone turned the opt out switch back on.

It’s like someone turned the opt out switch back on. But you're no running an Ad Blocker of any sort are you.
