Hey everyone,

I'm having a slight issue with my SMF install, over on FearAsylum.com [nofollow]

everytime I do an External Link out to for example elcewhere.com [nofollow](or any external links) - it throws a 404 error and URL it's trying to go to is ie.

https://www.fearasylum.com/elcewhere.com [nofollow]

using MOD: Ultimate Menu 1.1.4
&
RSS Feed Poster


any help would be greatly appreciated



shadav

what other mods do you have installed?
I see at least simple portal

and do you mean a link in a post or do you mean the link your menu?
If you mean the link(s) in your menu and you are using the Ultimate Menu mod to add them, you should ask in it's support thread: https://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=528574.0

if you mean in posts, will need more info
any errors in your logs?

if you mean in your menu and you didn't use the mod to add them, how did you set the link in your menu?

SimplePortal

RSS Feed Poster ( when attempting to grab .XML website URL it also adds my domain first then the URL )

Ultimate Menu ( this is the sole method i use to add top links in menu )

Menu_Icons

Bot Buster

Where have you tested this then, and how?
If this is an issue with the Ultimate Menu -mod, the question would be better placed in it's own support topic.

Marking solved as OP took Lex's advice and his problem was resolved.
