The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

No need to reset the password-- I think Kat will be taking over admin duties, and I thought it would be nice to have an email to send her. I can make one up though.

We hit a minor bug. Susan posted a link in the this post:

tommyrot "Natter 37: Oddly Enough, We've Had This Conversation Before." Jul 19, 2005 6:37:32 pm PDT

The link name ends with a period and no extension. So the converter puts the period after the link.

I'm going to post the same link here manually to see if the same thing happens - then edit it out if frelling occurred as did last I tried.

Daily Kos Link

OK manually works. The frelling with manual must have been due to a typo on my part. Let's try an automatic link

[link]

And there it is - the period moved after the link. OK - at least a nice straighforward easy to reproduce bug. We can fix it if it is easy or just note it as a known problem if not.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I don't think that's a valid URL. The period should be escaped somehow - more often than not, that period is supposed to be with the sentence, not the URL. So I move to note it as known issue.

Right. Ending it that way is extremely non-standard - the fact that we've never run into it before tells you just how non-standard.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Works for me without the period on the end. *shrug*

It went to the appropriate page for me like that, but it had "there is not text on this page" instead of the information. When I added the period in my line, I got the info.

What is even happening?

They all work fine for me, as do adding and deleting the final period, manually.
