Markdown issues

[childishweb]

G'day,

Probably should premise this by stating I'm likely doing this incorrectly rather than your website not functioning and I'm new to bug reports so please bare with me.

However, when I use the markdown feature to include links for example this habit "Do five lichess puzzles" it provides a link to click on, but when clicked on, it takes me to https://habitica.com/www.lichess.org/training rather than the link desired. I suspect this is a bug, but I'm not entirely sure. So therefore the markdown linking feature doesn't seem to be working as expected.

Regards,
James

In Markdown (sometimes) I think if you don't include the protocol (https://) it assumes you're writing a relative url, so it appends it to the site's URL. I don't know Habitica's markdown implementation specifically, but that might be a short-term solution assuming that's the intended implementation.

@childishweb Have you had a chance to try out @abea's suggestion? I use links in my tasks and always preface them with https://. If you continue to have problems, please email us at admin@habitica.com.
