I'm an adviser at a web site. I copy bookmarks and use the to provide a link when posting at this web site. I will usually embed the link in text and wrap it in BB code. This weekend I found that I can no longer do this. When I copy the bookmark and paste it I can't wrap it in BB code.

I've noticed that these links do not have the http header as they use to.

I just made a discovery. I can copy the bookmark and paste it in a topic where it is a usable link. Then if I right click on it and choose Copy Link Location, paste that, I can then wrap it in bbc. The extra step wasn't needed previously.

How and where did you copy the bookmark previously when it didn't work?

This occurs with all bookmarks.

Bookmarks are created by right clicking and choosing to bookmark and then clicking on Done.
