    • Page links with the word _url_ in it

    Posted by sholzy posts: 29

    I'm hoping someone can help resolve my dilemma, which I'm assuming it's a security feature in Tiki.

    I have a wiki page named Url$. I need to create a page link to it (from a wiki page), but Tiki has issues with using [url] and [url$] as links, and any internal or external page link with url as the page name part of the url. (This forum is inserting an into it.)

    Does anyone know of a way to get around this?

    I've enabled the Allow HTML setting and allowed HTML on the wiki page I'm trying to create a link on, but that didn't help. Maybe there's another option buried somewhere in the settings?

    Tiki 14.0

    Thanks.

    Hi Sholzy,

    you are mixing up external link and wikilink:

    External link:

    Copy to clipboard
    [http://example.com|example of an external link]


    Wiki Link

    Copy to clipboard
    ((Example|example of a wiki link))


    Regards,
    Torsten

    PS

    wiki link: url

    external link: url

    Hi, Torsten. Thanks for the reply.

    Actually, the reason I was using the square "[  ]" brackets for wiki links is I ran into a few instances where the "( )" brackets did not work for a wiki link and the  square brackets always did work (except this one time).  I guess after creating nearly 1000 wiki page links using  "[  ]" I had forgotten about the other brackets.

    I just tried

    Copy to clipboard
    ((url))


    Inside a FancyTable it does not produce a link. It just shows like the above.

    Outside the table it works as expected. 

    Since I need it to work inside the table I'll have to figure out another way to get the word Url to work in a link. 

    Is there a reason the word "Url" will not work as a wiki link in a FancyTable?

     

    Thanks.
