Description

When sending URLs that contain special characters (such as degree symbols, single quotes, double quotes, etc.) in the chat widget, the Autolinker library does not correctly detect or convert the entire URL into a clickable hyperlink. This results in broken or partial links, which impacts usability for users sharing such URLs.

Example with Google Maps link: https://www.google.com/maps/place/50°37'39.8"N 5°36'38.3"E

This issue is not limited to Google Maps links—any URL containing special characters (e.g., coordinates, encoded data, or other non-standard symbols) may be affected.

Reproduction steps

1. Open the chat widget.
2. Send a URL containing special characters (such as the example above) as a message.
3. Observe that the link is not fully detected or clickable; only a portion of the URL is autolinked.
