   reply to: [[External Links] Parenthesis are Mistaken as Part of the URL](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/parenthesis-are-mistaken-as-part-of-the-url/)

 * [10 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/parenthesis-are-mistaken-as-part-of-the-url/#post-6509988)
 * Whoops, sorry. On my website’s “About” page ([http://dcjtech.info/about/](http://dcjtech.info/about/)),
   I hard-coded the hyperlinks a few days after I made the above post because I 
   was unsure how soon you could look at the problem ad fix it. Plus, people were
   complaining about the flawed hyperlinks.
 * I just now removed the hard-coded links in the third paragraph (that starts out
   as “There are many downloads”). So now, “External Links” is creating the hyper-
   link. As you can now see, “([http://dcjtech.info/forum/downloads/](http://dcjtech.info/forum/downloads/)),”
   is considered an URL with a parenthesis and comma at the end.
 * The third paragraph should look like
 * There are many downloads ([http://dcjtech.info/forum/downloads/](http://dcjtech.info/forum/downloads/)),
   articles/tutorials ([http://dcjtech.info/forum/articles/](http://dcjtech.info/forum/articles/)),
   forums ([http://dcjtech.info/forum/qa/](http://dcjtech.info/forum/qa/)), and 
   more ([http://dcjtech.info/sitemap/](http://dcjtech.info/sitemap/)). Users can
   read articles in a recommended order by topic/subject ([http://dcjtech.info/guides/](http://dcjtech.info/guides/)).
 * But looks like the below instead
 * There are many downloads ([http://dcjtech.info/forum/downloads/),](http://dcjtech.info/forum/downloads/),)
   articles/tutorials ([http://dcjtech.info/forum/articles/),](http://dcjtech.info/forum/articles/),)
   forums ([http://dcjtech.info/forum/qa/),](http://dcjtech.info/forum/qa/),) and
   more ([http://dcjtech.info/sitemap/).](http://dcjtech.info/sitemap/).) Users 
   can read articles in a recommended order by topic/subject ([http://dcjtech.info/guides/).](http://dcjtech.info/guides/).)
 * So far, I have noticed that the “External Links” plugin thinks that commas, periods,
   and parenthesis that are after the URL are part of the URL. I manage to avoid
   this issue by hard-coding the links (add them myself) or placing spaces on both
   sides of the URL.

 * Okay, thank you. I did not think it did, but I wanted to report the issue just
   in case I was wrong. When I reported this bug, I also sent the same report to
   the WordPress developers. Thanks for your time (and great plugin).

 * I know about clearing the cache and such. I had to revert back to version 0.36
   because I do not want any service/tool to be down on my live server.
 * When using 0.37, I tried disabling Autoptimize and including the quiz Javascripts
   in the exclude list.

 * (@devyncjohnson)
 * [10 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/css-styling-class-needed/#post-6217184)
 * On my website (DCJTech.info), I use the below CSS code to style the suggestions
   box. The CSS code should be placed in your theme’s “style.css” file.
 * `div.bbp-template-notice,div.indicator-hint{border:#444 1px solid;padding:5px;
   margin:5px;color:#000;clear:both;border-radius:5px}`
 * However, you could use the below code, or add “.bbpress_livesearch_header” to
   the above code.
 * `.bbpress_livesearch_header{border:#444 1px solid;padding:5px;margin:5px;color:#
   000;clear:both;border-radius:5px}`

 * [10 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/suggestions-and-enhancements/#post-6511319)
 * I have three more suggestions.
 * 1. Perhaps, you could remove the “Plugin Support Forum” area in the “Stop Spammers”
   page. To me, it makes the page look cluttered and too full. Plus, removing it
   would be a minor optimization for that page.
 * 2. On the “Description” page, “THe” should be “The” in ” THe plugin implements
   a fuzzy search for email and user ids in order to check for spam.”.
 * 3. Update the “Compatible up to” to 4.3

 * Here is a description
 * BBCode Deluxe ([https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbcode-deluxe/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbcode-deluxe/))
   adds BBCode markup (and other shortcodes) to WordPress and BBPress. This plugin
   is a fork of the unmaintained (but well loved and used) “bbPress2 BBCode” plugin
   by Anton Channing ([https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-bbcode/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-bbcode/)).

 * Thanks for implementing my “username minimum length” idea. Again, thanks for 
   your wonderful plugin.
 * If you would like, you can write an article about your plugin and place it on
   my website ([http://dcjtech.info/](http://dcjtech.info/)) to help promote your
   work. If you are interested, you can register for an account on my website and
   then either –
 * 1. email the article to me and I post it under your username so you still get
   credit as the author
 * 2. post it under [http://dcjtech.info/forum/admin-desk/public-submissions/](http://dcjtech.info/forum/admin-desk/public-submissions/)
   and then I will move it to the proper article area
 * Alternately, you can paste the article on [http://dcjtech.info/contact-us/](http://dcjtech.info/contact-us/)
   and then use the email address and name that you would like me to use for your
   account that I can setup for you.
