Bug elated to titles
[edit]@Primefac: @Emerson7: Hi! I found a bug in the template Here the search term is more than one word, but the %20 is not added, and so the URL gets broken. In this revision I added %20 and it now works
The template itself should be modified so multiple word searches work.
Thanks, WhisperToMe (talk) 16:42, 23 December 2019 (UTC)
- Aha! The documentation explicitly instructs people to add the "+" sign, but it seems the editor before hadn't done that. I wonder if there's a way for it to automatically add a "+" or "%20" in case there are multiple words used. WhisperToMe (talk) 16:47, 23 December 2019 (UTC)
- Unfortunately not. There used to be a
urlencodecommand that would convert the spaces into +'s, but unfortunately it was breaking the instances where the + was used correctly.

- I'll swap the functionality and update the template calls. Original coding was kinda dumb. Primefac (talk) 20:35, 23 December 2019 (UTC)
