Hi, I am not sure why but the following url will not be opened when clicked.

Maybe the `é` character in the URL ?

[http://www.clashofclans.fr/threads/guide-stratégique-farming-intensif-or-hdv9-10-avec-bam.15652/](http://www.clashofclans.fr/threads/guide-strat%C3%A9gique-farming-intensif-or-hdv9-10-avec-bam.15652/)

Instead I will have a blank page on [http://forum.lesaines.fr/clicks/track?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.clashofclans.fr%2Fthreads%2Fguide-strat%25C3%25A9gique-farming-intensif-or-hdv9-10-avec-bam.15652%2F&post\_id=68&topic\_id=54](http://forum.lesaines.fr/clicks/track?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.clashofclans.fr%2Fthreads%2Fguide-strat%25C3%25A9gique-farming-intensif-or-hdv9-10-avec-bam.15652%2F&post_id=68&topic_id=54)

Discourse version is 1.2.0.beta3

Probably the é in the URL.

html escaping the `é` will work (like in the following URL). I will use this workaround.

Clicking on the link in the OP works now, so closing this as fixed.
