Tried searching for a method online but can't find the exact answer.

Can any please share a method to cloak all external links on a wp site?

I want all external links on my domain to show as mydomain.com/go/?=https://externallink.com

How can I do that? Thanks!

You should try searching for plugins can't remember the name but did stumble on one that does something similar to what you're asking.

At least this should center your search.

Will it auto cloak all the previous external links on my website?

I already tried some but none of them are cloaking all external links of my site. The feature they have is like the 301 redirect method. Do you have any other suggestions? Maybe something like a PHP code?

Hey man. Your article description is what I am exactly looking for. I will try it as soon as I get home. Thanks!
 
So, I've tried the method told by @moonswamp and it works. I also found this plugin called Mihdan: No External Links. It also works.

In my case, I used the plugin as it offers masking link encoding.
