As the title reads:

For some reason if you add a Google+ link to your profile, in the forum posts it appends the web page of the thread that the post is located to the front of the address.

For example: both the G+ and Facebook links under my avatar are using the same address: gplus.to/DirePhoenix (I use the url shortener gplus.to because otherwise google+ profile addresses are huge strings of numbers). The facebook link will take you to the correct (G+) page, but the G+ link will try to take you to "http://mwomercs.com/forums/topic/134603-google-profile-link-appends-forum-thread-address/gplus.to/DirePhoenix"

Odd behavior, but hopefully a quick and easy fix.

Ok, now both the facebook and Google+ links are appending the forum thread's address to the front of the link.

Still under review?

Both facebook and Google+ links are still broken: appending the address of the forum thread to the front of the actual link.

Not working.

I'm not sure what a screencapture would do, since what clicking on my G+ or facebook profile links does is simply returns you to the first post in the thread. Maybe I could post a video and you can watch it just move to the first post in the thread?

I've tested this on Chrome version 33 (current) and IE 11. Both have the same results. You can even see it when you just mouseover the link underneath my Founder/Phoenix icons in my posts here, the forum is adding the current thread address to the front of the gplus.to/DirePhoenix address specified in my forum profile (which btw, it's just plain text on the forum profile page and not a link... not sure if that is intentional). In this thread, that link becomes: http://mwomercs.com/....to/DirePhoenix. In other threads, it adds that thread's address in front of the gplus.to address.

EDIT: Correction, this is working now, I just had to add
http://
in front of the link.

I left the Facebook Link without the
http://
in order to illustrate what was happening.
