    This question may be related to a resolved thread.

    I’m having the same problem as documented in the related thread, however, none of the previous solutions seem to solve my problem.

    Details as follows:

    - custom field, text input type
    - input any url, http://www.something.com
    - output is http://www.mysiteurl.com/www.samplewebsite.com
    - channel preference “automatically turn urls and email addresses into links” is set to NO, because I am building my own links:

    <a href="http://{project_website_link}" target="_blank" rel="noopener">{project_website_link}</a>

    - checked the “Apply Rank Denial to User-Submitted Links”, and it was already set to NO.
    - adding/removing index.php doesn’t change outcome
    - removing .htaccess file doesn’t change outcome
    - site is not password protected

    Running:
    ExpressionEngine 2.5.2 Build Date: 20120606

    This has to be something silly, right? I don’t know why I wouldn’t be able to build my own links anymore. Thanks1

    Hi Shellster,

    Well this is truly strange. Be on the lookout for an email from me on this one. I think it’ll be easiest to troubleshoot by getting a first-hand look at it.

    Just posting a note here to let onlookers know that we’re working with Shellster privately on this for the time being. I’ll post an update back here once we have something to share!
