Invalid URL when sharing to Facebook

    Hi all,

    Facebook is returning an error page saying “href should represent a valid URL” when sharing via Shared Count.

    Every URL generated so far by Shared Count to FB has this as the start of the URL

    “https://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php?u=%2F%2Fwww.”

    This produces a URL error.

    If I remove the copy the URL into another browser window and remove the “%2F%2F” from the link, bingo, it works. So how can I fix this please? Such a shame because this is the first sharing plugin I have any form of success with!

    Also, can this plugin not work with Insta?

    Cheers ??
