email anchored my website

    Hello everyone, I need your help, because while updating my site with Visual Studio SEO and using Google’s Search Console, I noticed that this plugin is “encoding my email” on several pages of my site, thus causing a 404.

    Now I went to do a code analysis and I saw this part where for some reason the plugin adds my email queued to different URLs on my site through this code:

    var mi_track_user = true;
    var mi_no_track_reason = ”;
    var MonsterInsightsDefaultLocations = {“page_location”:”https:\/\/www.specialistaseo.net\/rebranding\/[email protected]\/”,”page_referrer”:”https:\/\/www.specialistaseo.net\/rebranding\/”};
    if ( typeof MonsterInsightsPrivacyGuardFilter === ‘function’ ) {
    var MonsterInsightsLocations = (typeof MonsterInsightsExcludeQuery === ‘object’) ? MonsterInsightsPrivacyGuardFilter( MonsterInsightsExcludeQuery ) : MonsterInsightsPrivacyGuardFilter( MonsterInsightsDefaultLocations );
    } else {
    var MonsterInsightsLocations = (typeof MonsterInsightsExcludeQuery === ‘object’) ? MonsterInsightsExcludeQuery : MonsterInsightsDefaultLocations;
    }

    the problem Here it would appear to be “page_location” as you can see from the code.

    Have you ever seen something like this?

    Could you help me remove my email from my site URL or at least remove this strange behavior on my site?

    Note: let me know if you need more code to analyze it as well!

    Thanks a lot for your interest and availability,

    Hi @webdevelopmentjs

    Thank you for reaching out.

    The code you are seeing in there merely reflects the URL of the page that has been opened on the browser.

    For e.g., when I click a submenu item from the home page, it showed the page as the ‘page_location’ where I landed, i.e. https://www.specialistaseo.net/technical-seo/ in this case, and ‘page_referrer’ as homepage (https://www.specialistaseo.net/), where I clicked that link. https://a.supportally.com/i/nBRR0M

    So, if you’re seeing an email inside the source code, it probably means there’s an email in the URL somewhere. It might show up as a 404 error when clicked.

    When I checked the same URL you have in the page referrer (https://www.specialistaseo.net/rebranding/), I noticed that you have the email address added as an http anchor link within the site’s footer section. However, clicking on it leads to a 404 page because there is no such page as the email address. On the 404 page, you will see the exact ‘page_location’ with the email inside the source code. https://a.supportally.com/i/LFB3Vh

    This is not an issue with the plugin, but the email shouldn’t be inside the anchor tag as http link. That will always create a 404 error for your link.

    Hope this helps to answer your questions. Do let us know if you have any other questions for us. We are happy to help!

    Have a great day!
