PDF Template ignore fields type link

Hello,

I’m new to this forum and I’m not sure if this is the correct topic for my question.

I upgraded to version 7.9.2 and saw that my PDF cards did not merge some fields that worked correctly.
I analyzed the source code of the templateParser class of the AOS_PDF_Template module and found that it had a special treatment for the type = link, but in the new version it only deals with the type = relate.
My question is whether this is a bug or is it a definitive change in class behavior?
Is there any option that I can use to get back to the previous behavior?
