Verse reference recognition anomaly

Post by therapon »

TW properly recognizes Song of Solomon 1:1 and Song of Songs 1:1 (actual chapter:verse is not important) but the hyperlink does not include the complete book name. TW also recognizes Song 1:1, Solomon 1:1 and Songs 1:1 and will automatically hyperlink them. TW does not include the leading "Song of" in the hyperlink. The only way to include the entire book name in the hyperlink is to manually edit the Text field in the Hyperlink form. Since the leading "1 ", "2 " and "3 " (also Roman numerals) are included in the hyperlink, "Song of " should be included as well.

Yes we are aware of this limitation. It is the way it is currently coded. We will have to see if there is a way to get it to link the whole phrase. Detection code is very complex, we don't want to be getting false detection.
