sendmessage.php completion

Apologies, but you lost me at BB URL field. Where is that? Here's what's in the CONTACT DETAILS:

[Wayne Luke]

It is that %3a in the URL. You don't have a valid URL in the redirect. Make sure you have an ASCII colon ( : ) in the BB URL field.

I assume you're looking for this section:

When you look at the rendered source code for the contact us page, what is the value for the hidden input "url" at the bottom of the form?

Here's what I have configured. Can you see a problem?

This usually occurs with an improper URL specified in the settings under Settings -> Options -> Site Name / URL / Contact Details.

[kgroneman]

Someone just brought this to my attention on our forums. If someone uses the CONTACT US link which I've got set to use sendmessage.php, they get the message that the email has been sent, but when it tries to send them back to the forum page, it doubles the URL like this: https://forums.opensuse.org/https%3a....org/forum.php so it fails.

Can you tell me where to go to fix that? Thanks. - Kim
