Adding SharePoint Links Created From List Filter Adds %2520% to the link.
We are currently developing filters for our SharePoint list and have opted not to use views due to the large number of unique filters we need to create. Our filtering is primarily based on the Division column.
We’ve encountered an issue: Division names without spaces, such as “Engineering,” function correctly. However, Division names with spaces, such as “Customer Service,” result in the link adding “%2520%” once it’s been added to the site page.
For your reference, here’s the filter link as it appears when copied from the address bar:
Next I am able to create a page and add the link as a button on a page
After updating the links, clicking the button opens the site with blank content. We’ve noticed that the links have “%2520%” appended to any spaces in the Division names.
Through testing, we found that deleting the “25” resolves the issue, allowing the filters to work as intended. This problem appears to affect all sites configured with filter lists, although views are functioning properly.
Please let me know if you have any thoughts on this or if further investigation is needed.
Thank you for your attention to this matter!
