| Hi guys, and thanks for all you do, and for this terrific site!!! Like the topic title says... If a smiley face BBcode happens to be included within a URL address... the URL address is altered automatically by the TGx site software, and then becomes unusable. Example: https://www.youtube.com/embed/mGlBudXli8o?autoplay=1 (without the spaces) m G l B u d X l i 8 o but the final (without the spaces) 8 o gets converted to this: 8o and thus... the link fails. Only workaround I know (once I'm lucky enough to have discovered my link within the forum topic has failed) is to have to convert the address using tiny.cc to a tiny url. AND then the final example of having to do this workaround, today, is here: https://torrentgalaxy.to/forums.php?action=viewtopic&topicid=518&page=159#post149653 ...where you'll note the second youtube link uses the tiny.cc conversion of "tiny.cc/hjl7qz" to overcome this issue: Thank you for your attention, and consideration of this issue! :) Pawpcorn Admin Note: Link shorteners are only allowed with permission of an admin and only if the original link won't work due to a code error. Only non-money scamming link shorteners like "tiny url" will be approved. Last edited by miok on 2020-06-24 15:42:07 | |

| If it's any consolation, this has been a problem on other forums/sites aswell. :D I say we blame it... on Youtube & their wOnKy naming of videos | |
