It's also broken from the `Help->Donate` menu item too, but it instead says `donate0geany.org` instead of `donate%%40geany.org`. Something must've changed recently as we just received a donation on the 17th of October.
I think it might be a problem with nginx 301 redirect on the server, the address it redirects to has the two `%%` in the email part of the URL. @eht16 any ideas?
I fixed the double `%%`, this was a left over when migrating from Lighttpd to Nginx recently. Sorry about that.
Could you test whether it works now? I spend the last hour in testing and trying various things while it should work as it is. Currently, a clean 301 status is returned with the appropriate `Location` header and this is the same as before. For some reason, when testing with my Firefox instance, I always get an error but this must be related to its history. I tested with fresh profiles in Chromium and Firefox and then it seems to work.
Works for me now on website and from `Help->Donate...` in Geany. Thanks @eht16!
Closed #1659.
