We have this issue before in SimplePress 4.4.5 using Wordpress 3.3.2 that long links are not working and not redirected to the correct url, So we decided to upgrade to latest version. It's working for a new post reply but on old forum post before the upgrade links is not working anymore. Please see the screenshot below. It's creating a new link with incorrect url. Let me know your thoughts about this. Thanks!

Long Links - plural?
I just ran some tests on 4.5.0 and 5.0.5 with very long links that included query variables without any apparent hitch. So is this really links plural or it is confined to a specific site being linked to?
Could you paste a sample link here so i can examine it to see if there is something that might cause an issue?

Sorry I was referring to, when a user post a long link. e.g http://1.irresistbl.pay.clickb.....cbfid=7363. This link is saved using SimplePress 4.4.5 and Wordpress 3.3.2. Then after upgrading this is not working anymore.

Could you try something for me? Could you try increasing the length of your 'shortening limit' (Options > Content Settings) by, say, at least 3 characters and see if that corrects the problem?
