Web: Improvements on Message Verify Twitter

Created on 3 Dec 2020  路  5Comments  路  Source: gitcoinco/web

Who

I am a Grant Founder and I would like to verify my account but I am having difficulties because of the length of my Grants name.

What

In this Round, we have a lot of problems with checking Twitter, I propose to add a url shortener in grants, or make a handle url for grants eg: gitcoin.co/grants/@futurebank With limited characters in the handle.

It would also be interesting to educate the community to write their projects with few characters:
_ex slogan: FutureBank is Lego Bank_

This will prevent the message from breaking before it reaches twitter.

@octavioamu @thelostone-mc

yeah having a URL shortener might do the trick !
@chibie 's hunch on the twitter length cutting it out was right from the looks of it

the bug was caused by the special character '@'

pr #8031 fixes it

special character "&"

Just to everyone knowledge url length doesn't count on the twitter character limit, and urls get auto shortened.
