So a typical html link would have the form...
<a href="/link-url">link text</a>
EasyDiscuss uses BBCode which has the form ...
[ url=link-url ] link text [ /url ]
Notice how the html link has quotes around the "link-url" while the bbcode does not?
Well, I found that when EasyDiscuss brings in html link from a Joomla article, it makes it into:
[ url=&q uot;ink-url&q uot; ] link text [ /url ]
That is, it wraps this in quote marks and messes up the link.
Had to add spaces here so that stuff will show
