Profile with Unicode Entities instead of Text
-
Hello *,
in my Forum profile I see my name with Unicode Entities instead of a proper letter. Can this be fixed please?
-
@kahukura Hey,
I had a encoding issue with your name, somehow it has been fixed for me.
What happens if you type your name here? -
@lamarca Jörg and Jōrg work fine here. TMK it's only in the profile as shown to be seen.
-
@kahukura The profile page is adding an ampersand
<meta name="title" content="J&amp;#333;rg" />
-
@kahukura Have you tried using low case? I will ping someone later.
Btw, The forum was offline for me. -
@kahukura You are not alone, I found a user with a similar issue.
-
@Gwen-Dragon There is one more issue, not related to German words.
-
I forgot two things:
- the URL: https://forum.vivaldi.net/topic/37354/encode-issue-on-user-profile
- The name displays fine on my profile
-
@Gwen-Dragon Here:
-
@Gwen-Dragon Jörg was not displayed correctly for me couple of months. Same as his profile
-
@kahukura thanks for raising this issue and sorry for the trouble.
It's a known issue that we have between the profile pages that uses one system and the forum that uses a different system. It's been fixed in the past but keeps breaking every now and then. The devs are on it to fix it again.In the meantime, I edited your name so that it shows correctly. It will be only temporary as if you visit your profile page it will break again. The hint that @Gwen-Dragon suggested using https://forum.vivaldi.net/me/edit will allow you to get it back yourself (again temporary until it's fixed).
Thanks for using Vivaldi's forum and being patient with us.
