Hi

I've been looking around for an answer to my problem but haven't found anything yet, let me explain.

for example if I have a link "www.example.com/xyzgszyx==" and insert it into a xml block using the insert function in the WYSIWYG editor and send it for publishing, the Equal (=) signs at the end will dissapear which in turn breaks the link.

If the Equal signs are anywhere else in the link they are fine and stay in the link, but when at the end they go.

Can anyone help me with this issue or point me in the right direction.

Cheers

This is a known issue. I reported it recently here, http://issues.ez.no/16990

We did not get any support from eZ systems on this problem.

In the end the staff used manual conversion of these problem urls into tiny urls to be able to store them within Exponential. Not a great solution by any means ....

Cheers,

Heath
