Invalid URL for Misc Link

I'm trying to submit a new title to IMDb, but every time I try to submit the Miscellaneous link, it comes back with an error saying "Invalid URL." I've never had this problem before.

What URL are you trying to submit, and what description are you providing for it? Also, what is the title of the film that this URL pertains to?

@gromit82​ I'm trying to submit The Necklace (1981) Dir. Bernard Wilets. I was using the WorldCat entry for the DVD as the link, and described it as WorldCat Entry: https://www.worldcat.org/title/necklace/oclc/9017558

I also tried using the Amazon VHS page: https://www.amazon.com/Classic-Literary-Amontillado-Necklace-Maupassant/dp/B000WB1LKA

@zachary_george_najarian_najafi  The most common cause of problems here is pasting the URL in the description field and the site name in the URL field.  It’s an easy mistake to make. 

Do you have a screen-grab of the data you have entered into the forms and the error message on IMDb?

That seemed to be the problem. It looks like the two fields were reversed since I last submitted
