cartpauj: Any link with more than 1 parameter, because it contains an ampersand which gets encoded.
cartpauj: Is the source for PrettyLink Lite on Github?
cartpauj: Are you sure that downgrading alone works? You would have to save the edited links again to overwrite the urlencoded values in the database I guess?
mmoworlds: You have to edit the broken links directly in the database, e.g. with phpmyadmin. Replace
& a m p;(without spaces) with&there.The problem is, that the URLs are saved urlencoded in the database, and are urldecoded in the backend, but not when redirecting. It should not urlencode them when saving, because this breaks backwards compatibility as well.
So & are saved as
& a m p ;(without the spaces, the forum is also buggy here) which breaks affiliate links with parameters.So quickfix is to fix the links in the database and not editing any more links in the backend until the plugin is updated. Ideally the update would recognize broken links and urldecode them and save them correctly when called.
