Links in banner topics, clicks not tracked

AI-generated summary

Grayden_Shand reported an issue with link tracking in banner topics. When a link in a banner topic is clicked, the click is not tracked or counted. However, when the same link is clicked from the topic page, the click is tracked as expected. The Expected Behavior is that clicks on links within a banner topic should be counted.

When someone clicks a link in a topic, that click is tracked and we see a counter of the number of users who have clicked that link.

Now, assume a topic is pinned as a banner topic, as such:
