Re: Non clickable link in original post but clickable when quoted
<Snip>
In your first example, there are 3 empty spaces between the two links. The bug won't affect that particular example. On the other hand, if there were 2, 4, 6, etc. empty spaces, you would notice the link turning into an unclickable one after an edit.Nothing should happen if a text segment is turned into a hyperlink regardless of the number of spaces before the link. You can see that in the example I shared in my previous post. The OP of that thread used a hyperlink on an edited post, and a link with two empty spaces before it is clickable.
One more thing. In your example, you placed two links one after the other (with 3 empty spaces in between). Maybe there needs to be some text before the links.
OK, you're right. After I edited the previous post, the URL links still work. In other words, there are several different causes for the URL link to become unclickable, as found by hosseinimr93 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5303648.msg57157166#msg57157166). I discovered this problem in 2021 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5303648.msg57156899#msg57156899) when editing a post containing Laszlo's post quote:
I spent it all on pizza long ago: https://blockchain.info/address/1XPTgDRhN8RFnzniWCddobD9iKZatrvH4
3-4 years ago there were less than 100 people frequenting this forum, and I was pretty happy to trade 10,000 coins for pizza. I mean people can say I'm stupid, but it was a great deal at the time. I don't think anyone could have known it would take off like this.

So, the solution I implemented was to use a URL tag on each URL link, including in this post (except Laszlo's original post quote).
