"in the Group view" where do you see the links being clickable in the group name?

[T3rminat0r]

When you change the group name, there's a message <<xyz changed the groupname to new name http://www.google.com>>

It is clickable there.

I've tried, I see the service message "... changed group name to «test super https://google.com»", but I can't click on https://google.com there. Tried "... changed group name to «test super www.google.com»" also -- can't click as well.

Wow, GitHub takes that symbol to the link as well :D

[T3rminat0r]

Yea ... Github doesn't know any better... ;) But seeing that TDesktop is setting that service message up, it should be able to tell that the closing quotes aren't part of the link? (sent you a screenshot of the clickable Link via TG)

[john-preston]

@T3rminat0r Well, currently links parsing is applied to the resulting string and it is parsed as it should be (like here on github), looks like that quote is a valid character for a link. It can be changed to parsing links specifically in the new title text and then forcing those links in the final message text, but it is a big change to the current logic.

It is easier and more consistent with mobile apps to disable links parsing in the service messages at all.
