Good evening, I have a bug with the links of WolframAlpha, it practically erases all the + signs from the formulas entered on WolframAlpha (and therefore of the links).

E.g

https://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=2=+(-b/(2a)),-2+=(1+-(b%5E2-4ac))/(4a),+-4+=-+(1+(b%5E2-4ac))/(4a)

writes: - (1(b^2-4ac))/(4a)

instead of: - (1+(b^2-4ac))/(4a)

Hi @forux,

None of our addons support WolframAlpha URLs. And this is the URL encoding issue, this is not wpForo issue. All URL encoding standards cause lots of issues with + and  % symbols. So please just shorten your URL before sharing. Here is the most popular way: https://bitly.com/

For example this is the shortened version, and it keeps + and other symbols: https://bit.ly/3hokWAj
