So, you know that handy feature on the edit page where you can select some text, go to hyperlink it, and then when you click on it, you get sent to the link?




well, whenever I tried doing that, it gave me an error page.

I was going to hyperlink a Wikipedia definition of a Phalanx to the word Phalanx, but it just gave me this screen.

This seems like a problem more faulty because of the browser I'm using (Chrome) than that of Scribble Hub, since it shows a page reload instead of an error page custom to Scribble Hub. However, I couldn't fix this problem. Any tips?

P.S.: I tried hyperlinking on another story as well (one of my own) but it also won't work there.


I've also realized the irony here, because the error page shows a hyperlink, which I couldn't make, so it gave me the error page. :blob_teary:

Well, did you try it in a different browser/device to see if the error persisted?

And did you try restarting your browser/device too?

I restarted, and did try a different browser (Brave). Still kept showing me an error page.

I can't seem to recreate this bug. Which series/chapter are you editing? and which link are you using?

I was editing a draft of this story and the link I wanted to hyperlink was https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phalanx.

I can add in the link and stuff in the "fill-out" section, but whenever I try to confirm, it just won't work, and just send me to an error page.


Here's everything in order. Sorry that I can only provide screenshots from my phone, right now.



First,

As you can see, I've filled our everything that I need to do. All I need to do now is 'Confirm'.

However, it sends me that error afterwards.

hmm. I'm not sure atm. I'm trying it on my phone and I can't recreate this bug. Is this a new bug for you? Installed any new plugins lately?

It is a new bug, and I haven't installed any new plug-ins. I do know that I could hyperlink before. Maybe it's my devices? A Chromebook and a Samsung A20? I don't have another computer with me ATM (fixing some unresponsive keys) so I can't test if the bug's related to my devices or my browser/account itself. Thanks for trying, though. I'll check one more time and edit this with the result.

Welp, I hyperlinked after a few months when I situation came up, and... it worked! It probably had something to do with my devices. But I don't know what.
