Template talk:User3

bug
Template doesn't work correctly for usernames containing spaces. For example, comes out DYLAN LENNON (talk &bull; contribs &bull; [/w/index.php?title=Special:Log&user=DYLAN LENNON logs] ), and the last link finds logs for a user called DYLAN rather than DYLAN LENNON. --Trovatore 06:36, 6 April 2006 (UTC)


 * You simply have to use underscores instead of spaces. Splarka (rant) 07:02, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
 * OK, so it's a bug with a workaround; that doesn't make it not a bug. --Trovatore 15:32, 6 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Yes it does, since it never worked any other way (but it does make it a limitation): External links (as required for the link to logs) on a wiki are delimited with a space, and you can't (yet) parse out spaces from passed variables. So, not a bug, just a "missing feature". Splarka (rant)


 * Speaking of which, "bug" fixed. New magic word --Splarka (rant) 08:10, 17 June 2006 (UTC)


 * I updated the template with fullurl: rather than /wiki/..., which could also have been {{localurl: , but fullurl is a combo of server and localurl:.
 * The check: {{user3|Jimbo Wales}} Seems to work (Still needs urlencode though)Kevin_b_er 00:17, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
