I am not so sure, and there might just be a perfectly logical reason for this to happen, but one would expect it to ignore the tags and parse the URL when in a post 'Parse urls automaticly' is checked.

Will display: http://www.vBulletin.com/

but http://www.vBulletin.com/

will display: http://www.vBulletin.com/

(as you can see, it is not clickable, it is maybe not getting parsed)

I just found this, by running into it on vbulletin.com when I was posting a reply to a thread.

test (http://www.vbulletin.com)

the above works as intended

and

http://www.vbulletin.com

this does not work

just curious to see what happens if you enter a url surrounded by the bold tags with auto url parse on.

just curious to see what happens if you enter a url surrounded by the bold tags with auto url parse on. Just exactly what you get as discribed in post1 :)

[Scott MacVicar]

its the regular expression within parseurl its designed not match anything which begins with a [ or ]

so

using

http://www.vbulletin.com

should work :)

There is indeed a logical reason for this. Namely, the regex doesn't know if the tag is already surrounded by [ url] tags. (Since double [ url]-tagging it would screw things up.)

Hence, it won't match a URL surrounded by bbcodes (specifically, a ] before it). You will need to manually link those.
