Invision Community 5: A video walkthrough creating a custom theme and homepage By Matt Thursday at 04:02 PM
panzerscope Posted April 21, 2021 Posted April 21, 2021 Hey all, So I have a member who has hyperlinked some text with a link (Url in question: http://dev_tc.axihub.ca/) and I have verified the hyperlink indeed is pointing to the correct URL prior to submitting the post. However after the post submission the system alters the hyperlink and points it to my forums homepage of https://forums.extremehw.net/ Is this a security feature of IPB ? Just need to find out why it is doing that and if I can alter the behaviour. Many Thanks, P
panzerscope Posted April 21, 2021 Author Posted April 21, 2021 Thought I would add the current link settings being used on the site
Solution CoffeeCake Posted April 21, 2021 Solution Posted April 21, 2021 The hostname of the link you posted contains an underscore. Underscores are not supposed to be used in hostnames and violate the RFCs for valid hostnames. My guess would be that CKEditor is doing something with this link. Posting it here as a test. Test link Daniel F and panzerscope 1 1
CoffeeCake Posted April 21, 2021 Posted April 21, 2021 Looks like the same behavior happens here. You should encourage whoever administers that site to consider a hyphen instead of an underscore. In other words, dev-tc instead of dev_tc. Daniel F 1
panzerscope Posted April 21, 2021 Author Posted April 21, 2021 I didn't notice that ! Good spot. This will no doubt be the issue then. Will relay this back to the user.
