v0.7 breaks middle mouse click opening to new tab - both new tab and original tab open to page. Previous version left originating page alone as is intended.

i have similar problem with mouse right click, i cannot choose "open link in a new tab" or "open link in a new window", the browser instantly reload webpage redirecting it in the channel link address when i click the right button

Hi,
Same issues here.
Example: while watching a video attempting to middle-click on the channel link, results both new tab and existing to refresh and go-to channel link

Yeah, sorry for all of this. I introduced a lot of issues with this update. Unfortunately, I haven't figured out how to actually get the desired behavior to work (the only reason I made a change is because the extension broke; YouTube must've changed something on their site).

Therefore, I'm in a lose-lose situation. Whether I go back to the way things were or leave things the way they are, things will be broken either way.

I'd love help if anyone can figure out how to get the desired behavior to work with the current YouTube: You click on a channel name, and it takes you to the /videos tab.

My question is if it's possible to leave untouched the functions of all other buttons of the mouse except the left click that is needed to activate the new behaviour of the version 0.7 of the script. if that can be done, in my opinion all the bugs are resolved

You may want to look at the code of this script:

It manages to hijack left-hand (side menu) navigation channel links so that they redirect to video pages. Perhaps the applicable code can be harvested for your own script.
