On-site requirement links break when switching between tabs on the mod page

[SauteedPanda]

This just started happening recently, opening a link from the "Requirements" tab on a mod page opens an URL that is missing the game path:

URL that is opening:
https://www.nexusmods.com/mods/12345

What the URL should be:
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/12345

Ok, so I'm having a serious issue at the moment where when I click on any mod linked in the Requirements menu for a mod (even the mod links in mods requiring this mod) every single one of them goes to the error page where it says the mod can't be found. Even mods I know 100% are available, even ones I already have. It's really frustrating me.

When initially viewing the mod page, the links show correctly with the game ID in the URL.

After switching to a different tab and back to Description, the game ID gets stripped from the URL

If you go to a mod page (for instance https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/149105 ) and immediately click the requirements header to list all requirements and mods that require this mod, the links appear normal. However if you ever swap to another tab on the mod page, clicking on the Files or Logs tab for instance, and the return to the Description tab, the links showing under requirements are broken and striped of the 'game tag' portion of the URL.

For instance https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/1137 becomes https://www.nexusmods.com//mods/1137

My most recent mod is a patch between 2 other mods so these other mods are absolute requirement but when people click the link in the requirements from the description tab they get a broken link a few commenters pointed it out.
A temporary fix was to edit the requirements and re-add the mods but I had to do it twice already.
The problem was the game part of the link was missing, example:
https:// www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/<modid> this would be correct, where <modid> is the correct number of the mod changed to this for example purposes
https:// www.nexusmods.com//mods/<modid> this is what was happening and leading to an error page
The only way to add these mods is to type their name and it will select them so it has to be something on your end.

We're aware, it's a bug where the links to mod requirements within a mod page description can become broken after navigating between tabs on the page.

As a temporary workaround, refreshing the page should resolve the broken links. This issue is under investigation, and the fix is scheduled to be implemented during our working hours. We will provide further updates on our status page when a fix has been implemented.

Noticed that all links to Skyrim translations dont work anymore, because /skyrimspecialedition/ is missing in the path.

Example:
Ai Overhaul has the URL https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/21654
The mod has multiple translations. Clicking on a translation will always result in a redirect to https://www.nexusmods.com/mods/XXXX and not https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/XXX
