I think some punctuation causes a problem with the auto-links for the songs.

I thought so too but then why Sgt. Pepper works just fine?

The follies of technology? I genuinely have no idea sorry.
 

I believe it is @Joe who sets all the variations that will auto-hyperlink. So he probably put in a bunch of reasonably close variations that would hyperlink to the same page, such as Sgt Pepper (no period) and Sgt. Pepper (period).

What I find funny is that I can type Sgt Pepper with two spaces between the words and it will not hyperlink because the forum magic detects the extra space, but the extra space only shows up in the text box, not in the published post, because the forum magic doesn’t include extra spaces in the published post format. (Maybe this is an HTML editor thing though, I’ll have to experiment further.)

billy-preston_01_gifHere’s the most underused Smiley. I try to use it in place of ahdn_john_08_gifjohn-lennon-salute_gifahdn_paul_01ahdn_george_05a-hard-days-night-george-4ahdn_george_06 and a-hard-days-night-ringo-15 but sometimes you need the OGs

It’s just kind of hard to see his expression, I’m afraid. Does that make us racist? a-hard-days-night-george-10

neil-aspinall I always think that smiley is Graham Chapman in some kind of bizarre nod to George’s film workings.

Same! When I first came to the forum I thought that it actually was Graham and just accepted it without thinking but then one day I was like “hmmmm this is too sus” and hovered my cursor over it and saw that it was called “neil_aspinall” and I was like “oh that makes more sense than a random Chapman huh”

I believe Walrian once described it as “gotcha” and honestly it’s his exact expression

Then “Sgt. Pepper ‘s Lonely Hearts Club Band” or “Baby, You’re a Rich Man” or “Back in the U.S.S.R.” etc. should all be viable hyperlinks as well. And there shouldn’t be an unskippable space after the words and also the monosyllables should by in lower cases why aren’t they in lower caseskihjtuienlvtyc3mosvdsva-hard-days-night-ringo-13a-hard-days-night-ringo-14a-hard-days-night-ringo-13

yeah, sorry, that should teach me not to PWT a-hard-days-night-paul-7

Friendly reminder, though, that everyone has the power to re-route conversations. Just quote the post, copy your reply to the desired thread, and link to the post you’re quoting. ahdn_john_08_gif
