This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
Links in URL custom field gets appended to site url when clicked rather than going to the URL that is stored in the field.
Example when google.com is entered into the url field it gives the below on the frontend
mysite.com/google.com
Solution:
This is happens because you are adding the URL to a url field without adding http:// before the actual URL.
You will need to edit your fields to include the http:// to resolve the issue. Secondly I would recommend enabling the field validation for this In your field settings at Toolset -> Custom fields.
This will ensure that only valid URL's are added to the field and prevent this from happening in the future.
