Not sure if this is related, have text fields in a repeater with a URL that my template snippet uses to but into a link (a href tag). This is not being recognised as an outbound link.

Technical info the same as above.

Merging an issue from internal Jira https://yoast.atlassian.net/browse/IM-1365 Reporter: @monbauza Issue: Internal links added in ACF Wysiwyg Editor field are detected in the SEO analysis of the page, however, they're not counted in the link counter columns of the post overview page.

Steps To Reproduce

1. Install and activate Yoast SEO, ACF and ACF Content Analysis for Yoast SEO
2. Create a Wysiwyg Editor field in ACF for posts
3. Create a new post and add some text content in the ACF Wysiwyg Editor
4. Add an internal link in the ACF Wysiwyg Editor
5. Note that the SEO analysis says: "Internal links: You have enough internal links. Good job!"

Expected Results

The internal link to be counted in the link counter columns on the post overview page.

Actual Results

The internal link isn't counted in the link counter columns on the post overview page.

Screenshots: Note: This bug affects other plugin features such as the cornerstone workout and the orphaned content workout which rely on the link counter numbers.

Impact Users of ACF adding internal links in the Wysiwyg Editor.

I tested this issue with recent versions of Yoast SEO (20.7) and ACF (6.1.6) with ACF for Yoast (3.0.1)
