Hi guys,
I'm writing on behalf of my client (@will).
I think we've found out a bug.
If we try to mention a comment like this (#2303788) and we also format it, with bold text for example, it will not link to the comment. In short:
#2303788 <-- will work
#2303788 <-- will not work
Let me know if you need any more info.
Hi @accelera,
This is not an issue. The HTML for the #164 in bold is <strong>#164</strong>, which is not considered the same as the main comment content.
However, if the HTML is structured like this: <strong>test #164 test</strong>, where the comment ID has spaces before and after it, it will be considered the same as #164. This works as intended because the regular expression can correctly identify and extract the comment ID from the content.
If you would like to display comment IDs in bold, we recommend using CSS instead of adding HTML tags directly to the comment content.
Hi Astghik,
Thanks for your reply.
Sorry if it's still not clear to me, but what would be the explanation for this user's insight then?
Could you please provide the direct URL to the comment? I’m unable to clearly understand the issue from the screenshot alone.
Please take a look at the image. In the first and second comments, #2345721 has no spaces or HTML tags around it. However, in the third comment, the numbers and the # sign are wrapped in a <span> tag.
Because of this difference in the HTML structure, the parsing does not work the same way in both cases.
All right, thank you.
