In our renewal emails, we are giving them a link to the renewal URL. In this case, that is nccadv.org/renew-membership .
Whether I choose this via the editor (JCE) by selecting the correct menu item, or just pasting " nccadv.org/renew-membership " into the URL ... when the email is sent, it is leaving out "nccadv.org" in the a tag ... instead, it is creating a link to "http://renew-membership/", leaving out "nccadv.org" and the "s" in https.
Example:
Code:
You can also renew at <a href="renew-membership">https://nccadv.org/renew-membership</a>
and
Code:
You can also renew at <a href="index.php?option=com_osmembership&amp;view=renewmembership&amp;Itemid=958">https://nccadv.org/renew-membership</a>.</p>
BOTH result in a link to "http://renew-membership/"
Please advise. Thank you, Vicky

Hi Vicky

Please check the setting of JCE. There should be a setting called Link Type or something like that. Set it to Absolute (so that it will save absolute URL instead of relative URL) and it will solve the issue

(Link Type is the parameter in Tiny MCE, by default, it is relative, you can set it to Absolute. JCE should have same parameter)
