Https Links Not Possible From Within Tinymce Editor,

Recommended Posts

Hello.

We have SSL activated on our site with and active certificate and everything is working fine PS1.6. Except one important thing. Especially regarding SEO.
All links that have "https://yoururl.com" in the url gets scrambled automaticly by the editor tinyMCE to: "../yoururl.com"

If i take away the "s" in the link and just add "http://yoururl.com" it works fine and it ads the link just like that.
BUT That is a big problem for SEO.

 

EXAMPLE:
Lets say you have a SSL activated webshop and on your productpage in the description, edited by the tinyMCE you want to link to your contact-page or some other page on your site. Perhaps another product etc. Yes there are modules for this but now we want to link to another page from within our tinyMCE.

So if i then ad a link to "https://myurl.com/contact"  the tinyMCE editor scrambles that link to "../contact".
But if i dont add the "S" in the link and just add "http://myurl.com/contact" it works fine.  BUT this is a big problem. Google and many other search-engines will see this as an outgoing link as there is big difference in http and https and the http link will count as an outgoing link.

And working with SEO and then give your site perhaps hundreds of outgoing links is NOT a good idea :)

So is there away to force tinyMCE to not scrample/autoclean the https links.?

Or some snippetcode to use when using inbound links?

Thank you.
