Opt tag without URL-encoding

jarekk · Sep 25, 2017

Hi,

We have a unsubscribe link imported within an opt tag. When entering the opt tag in the following way: <a href='[Opt3]'>unsubscribe</a> the contents of the opt tag get URL encoded, which effectively destroys the link.

This didn't happen with earlier versions of MBM.

Any solutions?

Regards,

Jaroslaw

Can you give an example so I can try to reproduce the problem here?

That's pretty simple. Create a new MBM file, choose "HTML only" as format. Enter the following content for the email:

<html>
<body>
<a href='[Opt3]'>test</a>
</body>
</html>

Now create a receiver with a link (e.g. http://www.onet.pl) in Opt3 and go to Preview. The link does not work, as it has been URL-encoded.

Try to use:

<html>
<body>
<a href='http://[Opt3]'>test</a>
</body>
</html>

and in the Opt3 column:

www.onet.pl

Does it fix the problem? Is that fine for you?
