External Links Not working lately

Members posting links offsite to places like Amazon are trying to be helpful.

But lately, these links do not work... error code "Invalid hit looping" Is this an MBWorld problem that the admin people can fix, please?.

Can you post an example linking to a specific post, and provide a screen capture of the error?

I'm not aware of this issue and we would need to investigate. It will help to look at exactly what you're looking at.

Thanks!

The link in Post #7 of this thread... https://mbworld.org/forums/e-class-w...ml#post8690460

In short, any link off-site in any post returns the error, or redirects back to the post that contains it.

I'm not making this stuff up.

The link works correctly for me, as shown in the screen capture. We are not aware of the issue you're reporting as we have not received similar reports or have been able to duplicate it. So we are missing some key information or it is specific to your environment. I would suspect you have a 3rd party browser plugin that is blocking or altering the site, based on your info.
