Problem adding a Macro to a Handout

Heelllllllppppp!! I've read that it is possible to add a macro that will roll in the chat box to a handout in a few different places, but I can't figure out how to do it myself for the life of me. I'm not sure if i'm doing something wrong, or what, but I've become incredibly frustrated. Here's the situation: My PC's have been given a Bag of Holding that contains 10 mystery potions, from an ex-adventurer NPC. I've created a rollable table with all the possible potions they might pull and a macro to go with it. Both the rollable table and the macro work perfectly and I'm happy with it. Here's where things get weird for me. I've created a handout for the Bag of Holding that will be in the journal of the PC in possession of it, and in the handout is a table where we can keep track of the bags contents. I want to link the mystery potion macro to the table so the player can just click the link to determine which random potion they pull out, BUT whenever I follow the directions I've been finding all over this forum the link that gets created redirects me away from Roll20 and to a web page that doesn't exist.  The steps I'm following are: Open the Handout and click edit In the "Description and Notes" section, I click the "link" button In the pop out box I enter the "Text to Display" and in the "To what URL should this link go?" field, I enter: !
#[Mystery-Potion] Save the Handout What the hell am I doing wrong?! Its making me want to pull my hair out.  Thanks in advance, sorry for the novel.

Hmm, well thats frustrating. Hopefully it's resolved soon.

It appears to prefix URLs that don't contain " http: " with it - for example if I wanted to link a macro called " Crit " I create the link with the explained method but when right-clicking the saved handout's link and copying it then pasting it somewhere it gives me " http:#Crit " - I've never linked a macro in a handout - is this the a result of the Updated Text Editor? Is this a new behavior of creating links in the editor?

I'm damn lucky I keep 2 text files and a folder for backups in particular. I have all my macros in a text file, all my applications of said macros spread out randomly in another text file, and a folder of *.js files backing up all my API scripts (Plenty I modified and even more I coded myself). I can't stress this enough. BACKUP EVERYTHING. Backup your FULL game (Including forums!) regularly! Backup your API scripts, your global macros, your token action macros, backup ALL the macros! I'm running an ever-growing campaign that is so large it is currently split into 5 parts so far. I have a "Clean Slate" campaign which only has a "Placeholder" page but is otherwise my backup to ALL other games, containing every character sheet, handout, macro and API script of ALL 5 games. The only thing I haven't been backing up are the pages which I'm on the fence on whether or not I should back them up (They are probably the easiest facet to re-create in a pinch) I even saved every marketplace purchase I have made to my SSD, a flash drive as well as my Google Drive (5427 tokens). I've had a hard drive die on me in the past and lost 2 years worth of work / code. I will ALWAYS BACKUP EVERYTHING now - on multiple drives - on multiple storage services.
