 * Hellow,
 * Great plugin, but I am having an issue. When I place the plugin shortcode into
   the menu it drops the colon from my link.
 * i.e.:
    https//budoprime.com/forums/users/budoprime/ instead of [https://budoprime.com/forums/users/budoprime/](https://budoprime.com/forums/users/budoprime/)
 * What do you suggest?
 * Thank you,
    Frank

 * Hi Frank,
 * I thougt I had the same problem. But I found out, that if I link to [bbp_profile_link_shortcode]
   WordPress will add http:// to the beginning, followed by https//, but if I use/[
   bbp_profile_link_shortcode] everything works as expected.
 * Regards,
    thoand
