Having an issue with the site. Every so often, and more regularly as time goes by, when I open a link to the site....it brings up the "save as pdf/print" automatically. Doesn't matter if I'm on a mobile device or a desktop pc running windows. Anyone else having this happen to them? It's annoying as **** having to close that 6 or 10 times while reading a thread. If it's a multi-page thread, it does it every time I open a new page. Sometime multiple times before I can get it to stop and finally read the page. Anybody else getting this or seen it before? Got any suggestions? Thanks.


Edit: for whatever reason, links I go to are showing as the following:

https://gmtnation.com/forums/threads/the-85-000-00-gm-4-2l-engine-repair.14423/print

See the 'print' at the end? Why is that on all of the links? How can I make it stop adding that to links I go to? It happens when I do Google searches of the site ie "4.2l cam phaser site:gmtnation.com". Seems that a lot of the results have that "print" at the end. But it's not limited to Google searches. It's also happened while searching the site directly, I believe.


Google search results.... Almost every link has "print" at the end? I see that this isn't really an issue with the site. Sorry. I didn't know that when I first posted and only figured it out while editing to add info.

Does this only happen when using the google site search?

I've not ever seen it happen just browsing the site. I do see that it shows that /print when google searching your example. Tried others, sometimes the links shows that, other times not. It seems random.

Are you using firefox or chrome for both pc and phone? If so I would check you addons and also check your google settings.

Chrome. I'll give it a look. Thanks.

I'm not exactly sure anymore. I thought it was also happening while browsing the site, which was why I initially posted this. I'll pay better attention and see if it's only Google results. Thanks.
