Steemit links contained in a post are tampered with when the article is published via Knacksteem.

Project Information

• Repository:
  https://github.com/knacksteem/knacksteem.org
• Project Name: Knacksteem
• Publisher (if applicable): Knowledges

Expected behavior

I expected that if I inserted a steemit link in an article and published the content via Knacksteem, it would be intact. Meaning the link should change to anything else.
I also expected that after publishing the content, I can open the link I placed in the article.

Actual behavior

Well, I noticed that after publishing a content using Knacksteem that contained steemit links, the links were altered or tampered with. When I tried clicking the link, I got an error message that the link doesn't exist.

I viewed the link and discovered that posting via Knacksteem, the editor tried to change the steemit link to a knacksteem link, thus rendering it nonexistent.

How to reproduce

• Login to Knacksteem
• Create a content using Knacksteem post editor and embed a steemit or busy link in it like this title
• Publish the content
• Try to open the embedded link
• See error.

• Browser/App version: Google Chrome v71.0.3578.98
