We are having a problem when someone posts a link to the social network status.
When someone copies a URL to their status like: http://www.albanylawreview.org/Articles/Vol72_2/72.2.0017%20Rosborough.pdf
The system changes the link to:
https://www.albanylawreview.org/Articles/Vol72_2/72.2.0017%20Rosborough.pdf
The diffence is the https protocol. No matter how you try and edit it, it keeps changing it when you post.
Our site is on a secure server https.
This results in dead links (or security warnings) if the server the URL is for does not use the https protocol.
Hi,
this is not a problem of our Social plugin. Your website parsing all Link and add https protocol
Our Test:
- We have created a menu item (visible only for Admin) of type System Links->External URL
- We have fill with your example Link
- Your site change from HTTP to HTTPS (see screenshot)
- Now we have trashed this menu item
We have made some other test and found that if we disable "System - Admin Tools" plugin then all the links work properly.
