Issue Summary
I make my go urls in a CCK field with the Go filter on, like this:
Whatever, and save the node. In the go redirects back-end, I'm starting to accumulate multiple labels for each link, such as "whatever", "34/whatever", "35/whatever", "36/whatever", etc. What's going on? My gotwo backend is a mile long, and I've only actually saved 7 nodes with a go link in them. Why is it doing this?

sorry, the html filter in the original post filtered out my example code, let me try that again:
I make my Go link in a CCK field with the go filter on, like this:
<go href="http://whatever.com" title="whatever">Whatever</go>I save the node, and end up accumulating multiple labels in my back-end, such as 1/whatever, 2/whatever, 3/whatever, etc. Each one tracking clicks, none accumulating any, since the node didn't save the URL as go/1/whatever, it saved it as go/whatever, so all these multiple labels are growing a mile long in the back end, and serving no apparent purpose.

The mass generation of links could be cause by an auto increment bug in 1.0, but this only occur if you have upgraded from D5!? Was this an upgrade?
I'm not sure how you have been able to create/use go links in CCK fields. Why CCK field type are you using for them? It would be helpful if you are able to write up a repro plan... also for the many links generated... Please try with latest DEV.

No feedback, closing.

I was using a cck link field. I was using Drupal 6, no upgrade.
I have since switched over to using a cck redirect field in a custom content type called "go", and then linking to the redirection node from whatever node I'm writing, since I have fewer problems that way. It also let's me keep track of the individual link click through better that way too, since it's just a matter of checking page views for the content type "go" nodes.

Hi LiliVG,
Could you share your method using CCK redirection?
So far, I've tried the gotwo module, and I also gave a try to CCK redirection, but couldn't actually find out how it works.
Thanks in advance!
