Hi brianskov,

The address is being URL encoded with the urlencode() function.

This is one of two places where it is being done.
https://github.com/concrete5/concrete5/blob/develop/web/concrete/blo...

As an example, it is making an address like "http://concrete5.org" display as "http://localhost/concrete5/index.php/http%3A%2F%2Fconcrete5.org".

I believe the use of urlencode() in this file is a mistake. If someone else can confirm that it is a mistake, I will make a pull request with the change.

Yes I guessed that it was URL encoded - but didn't understand why.

Will someone be able to fix it soon?

If I decide to fix it myself - will it be overwritten with next update?

If someone confirms that urlencode() should not have been used, then I will upload a fix today.

If the fix is accepted, then it will be available in the next concrete5 5.7.5 release. This release is due out soon.

In the meantime, you can fix it yourself and remember that an update will overwrite it.

You're correct. We should not be urlencoding() this URL. I'm sure this is a result of an overzealous security-related pull request we applied without doing proper testing on. I'll approve it quickly if it can get in

Thanks for the help.

I have fixed it manually for now.

Will it be fixed in next update?

The fix was submitted last night. It should be part of the next update.
