# Protocol error in management links

 * The automatically generated links under the comment form to manage subscriptions
   are missing the “:” in the protocol part. So the links look like `https//` instead
   of `https://`
   How to get this working?
 * We are using Astra Theme and Elementor page builder, and Elementor’s comment 
   widget. 
   Thanks in advance.

 * Thanks a lot for your reply. 
   I already answered the reply and test requests 
   on GitHub 12 Sept. 2023. Any solution or idea?
 * `Hi [@BobaWebDev](https://github.com/BobaWebDev)
   I checked the URL in WP admin
   > Settings > General for the Site Address option. It's set correctly.
 * `So I wrote a test comment and subscribed for notifications checking the checkbox.
   After subscribing I get two links beneath the comment box.
   The link to 'edit 
   my subscription' is correct. But the link to 'edit all subscriptions for this
   post' is wrong. The latter looks like this in HTML code: http://https://example.
   com/comment-subscriptions/?srp=xxx&srk=xxx
   
   Same goes for the link to 'subscribe
   without posting a comment' if I didn't subscribe yet. Here too the link looks
   like this in the HTML code: http://https://example.com/?srp=xxx&srk=xxx
 * `So I was not correctly reporting the issue in the first place. There is no missing“:”
   in the protocol part, but an additional prefix http:// added to some links.
   I
   hope this helps.Regards

 * Hi @BobaWebDev,
   finally I could find out why the protocol in some links appeared
   wrong!In the “Messages for your visitors” section of the “Comment Form” plugin
   options page some links were set like this:
 *     ```wp-block-code
       <a href="http://[subscribe_link]">
       ```
   
 * or
 *     ```wp-block-code
       <a href="http://[manager_link]">
       ```
   
 * This is only visible in TEXT mode of the editor fields, but not in their VISUAL
   mode. 
   Argh! Regards
