I too have the same problem on my joomla 3.3.6 site running Kunena 3.0.6. We have SEF disabled and we don't use any SEO plugins. Here is what the url looks like in the notification email.

URL : www.outryders.org/index.php?option=com_k...d=953&Itemid=414

"amp;" is concatenated to the "&"s which breaks the url.


Any idea what could be causing this??? Thanks!

I have been doing some testing in this area.

Normally I use Joomla's standard SEO features whenever I build my websites. I understand that this may not suit everyone's tastes but, I'm just saying, it makes things easier for me.

I have a [J! 3.3.3] test site and, for the purposes of testing, I used the following settings:

Global Configuration » Site » SEO Settings » Search Engine Friendly URLs = No
Global Configuration » Site » SEO Settings » Use URL rewriting = No
Global Configuration » Site » SEO Settings » Adds Suffix to URL = No
Global Configuration » Site » SEO Settings » Unicode Aliases = No
Global Configuration » Site » SEO Settings » Include Site Name in Page Titles = No

In other words, pretty much a Joomla site with the original settings left unchanged.

I subscribed to a topic and posted a test message using a different account. The image below shows you the email that I received (I have edited the email to remove personal information about myself):



In the image above, I have used arrows to indicate the HTML "ampersand" characters generated by Kunena.

When I clicked this URL from my email program, the URL was correctly translated to

http://<site-name>/index.php?option=com_kunena&view=home&defaultmenu=160&Itemid=159

... and the page opened!

I then tried copying and pasting the URL into Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, Internet Explorer and Safari browsers and the URL worked in every case.

I am not saying that my test has been conclusive but I would like to make the following observations:

1) I do not think that the problem has anything to do with any particular version of Joomla that people may be using.

2) I do not think that the problem has anything to do with any particular template—site template or forum template—that people may be using.

3) I do not think that the problem has anything specifically to do with people choosing to not use Joomla SEO. The issue (obviously) seems only to occur when people disable Joomla's SEO but this should not be a reason to force people to employ Joomla's SEO if they do not want those features.

4) The problem may have something to do with "custom menus" that people are using. In all the cases reported in this topic, every configuration report shows that people are using some custom menus. It may be worthwhile trying to use the default Kunena menu items—at least to prove whether the Joomla menu is responsible. Information about how to use the default Kunena menu is given in Kunena Menu issues in the Wiki.

Thanks for all the testing etc sozzled.

I tried your recommendation and rebuilt the Kunena menu items following the directions in the Wiki but this had no effect - the url in the notifiication are still broken with the amp; concatenated onto &.

I did a search and found this post which may have relevant information - URL in Links converts & to &amp; making the URL invalid This post is about a completely different component but with the same problem. Here's the relevant info from the post. I'm not sure how to implement their solution in my joomla environment.

Encoding ampersands (once) is fine -- and even valid -- for links within an HTML page.

But, if you use CKEditor for building EMAIL MESSAGES, then you do NOT want ampersands to be encoded by the editor. In a common email client like Outlook, if a link contains &amp;, it breaks. This has nothing to do with double-encoding or n00bs.

My solution was to use:
CKEDITOR.config.forceSimpleAmpersand = true;on the page containing my email editor.

Alternately you could put:
config.forceSimpleAmpersand = true;in your main editor config.js file if you want this setting to apply to all of your editor instances.


Please let us know if this is helpful info.
