WF makes me log in each time I click a non-beta link within WF. This happens whether or not I'm using the Beta version.

I had been using the non-beta version of WF and then I switched to the beta version. After I did this, the URL of each node I added contained the string 'beta' (as in [beta (dot) workflowy (dot) com]. If I manually add 'beta' to the URL, I'm not required to log in.

I'm using the Web-based version of WF on Windows in the Chrome browser.

WORKAROUND - I found a workaround using the 'find and replace' bookmarklet by rawbytz:

I searched for [/workf] and replaced it with [/beta.workf] (without the brackets, of course).

  This solution requires a script manager extension like Tampermonkey.
  
  Once installed, internal WorkFlowy links always open in the current tab/domain.

  Click the "Raw" button to install, after installing Tampermonkey.
