I'm trying to add affiliate links to a post
Unfortunately that doesn't work, the links are broken

Example of a link

<a title="Philips Hue Play HDMI Sync Box 234,85 €" href="https://track.adtraction.com/t/t?a=1491368762&as=1616249498&t=2&tk=1&url= https://www.coolshop.de/produkt/philips-hue-hdmi-sync-box/2348ED ?" target="blank">Philips Hue Play HDMI Sync Box 234,85 €</a>

The result can be seen here = Example Forum Post

The same post as a Wordpress article = Wordpress Article without problems

The forum post is not copy and paste

a correction via the database also produces the same broken links

it always breaks at the 2nd url  "url=http"

There is also a space in the code example above "url= http"

Problem solved I can also use short links 😉 

then the problem with the 2nd url no longer exists

@tutrix Not sure if this is of any help, for similar reasons i use:

https://wordpress.org/plugins/daext-autolinks-manager/

and works just great. Also in wpForo with a little tuning in autolink manager settings.
