Hello, whenever I repost a link to my Discourse forum let’s say to Facebook, it leads to a non-working page. And if I post a link to any discussion anywhere on social media, then the discussion which opens consists of a blank white page, no replies and just the title. On the forum, the discussion d…

Could you send a link here by chance?

I would prefer not to share domain in public but this is what happens when someone clicks on a reposted thread on FB: [IMG_0667]

And when I post a direct link to the forum itself (not specific thread), then it’s just a blank non-working broken error page. After clicking on the domain on FB, then in the browser, the address is followed with something like ?fbclid=IwAR3o9S5-qlt2_CMmFVoHpEsntmYymJfAGz-6gDvW6H9XE8y But the doma…

So the link looks for example like this? https://meta.discourse.org/t/links-to-my-forum-do-not-work/292971/3?fbclid=IwAR3o9S5-qlt2_CMmFVoHpEsntmYymJfAGz-6gDvW6H9XE8y Does the same happen with links to other forums like this one or does it only happen with yours?

Yes, just like that in the browser. When I post on FB, the link is normal. Once you click on it, in the browser there are letters and numbers added to the end.

[изображение] Moin: Does the same happen with links to other forums like this one or does it only happen with yours? I just tried to post a link to this (meta discourse) thread on FB and it added the numbers and letters as well into the browser. But the redirect perfectly worked. So, it must…

Could you copy the URL Facebook changes it to and just redact your domain (possibly topic name as well)? And perhaps the same for Meta as well as a proof-of-concept?

I don’t think the issue is with the link being transformed when posted on FB, since this happens whenever you post any link to social media - these letters and numbers are also added to the redirected link. But somehow my domain doesn’t work unless it doesn’t contain any additions.

Again, could you provide a redacted example from your site alongside one from Meta?
