 * Before update it was working fine & smoothly but after updating to 4.7.3 version
   of WordPress I am getting this error.
 * Here is my html code
    `<a class="name" href="/about/#/product/12345">Product 
   Name</a>` I have also tried but result is same `<a class="name" href="/about#/
   product/12345">Product Name</a>`
