Title: News link goes crazy when replying to a topic
Post by: R2D221 on February 17, 2015, 05:36:38 PM
The news header, the one that currently says that the latest version is 0.10.0, is shown differently when replying a topic. Instead of being a link, it shows the actual URL of the link, which is pretty big.

Something like this:

News: Latest stable version of Bitcoin Core: 0.10.0 (https://bitcoin.org/en/download) [Magnet (magnet:?xt=urn:btih:170c61fe09dafecfbb97cb4dccd32173383f4e68&dn=0.10.0&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.openbittorrent.com%3A80%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.publicbt.com%3A80%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.ccc.de%3A80%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.coppersurfer.tk%3A6969&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Fopen.demonii.com%3A1337&ws=https%3A%2F%2Fbitcoin.org%2Fbin%2F)] (New!)

No, I still see it (different URL, but same behavior)

tl;didnt click link:

This also happened previously; you just didn't notice it because the link wasn't so long.

Whenever your session code is in the URL, all links are broken. Otherwise, your session code will be sent in the referrer if you click one of the links and the destination is HTTPS. (Links are also broken with some JavaScript things like quick edit when your session code is not in the URL.)

I changed the link to a shorter one so it's less annoying.

You are right, I tried editing the post above, and it had my session code in the URL, and the links were broken.
