The user field for your Replit username is not working correctly. On 99% of peoples profiles that were made in the past few weeks (I think) it displays as <span class="mention">@username</span>. It should only display as @username.
List of effected users
This is a small list of effected users. There are more users affected that are not listed here.
My guess is that it’s how the user field is set up. I can go and look at some stuff on meta and probably be able to figure out how to fix this (for new and updated users) and make it link to their Replit profile.
Here is the current setup. It doesn’t appear to have the option to remove HTML tags (which is what I think is happening here, users are deliberately trying to add HTML)
Was not an intended feature. You should ONLY be able to put your username. Thought its not a problem now you wont get in trouble since its SFW but it should be going away soon once we figure out how to fix it.
I’m going to work on the topic now. I am going to link to this topic for more detail. I did try making a reflex pattern but it did not work and I don’t think there is a way to implement it.
And the user base is growing a lot so it’s way too inefficient. And after a single person does a few hundred users it gets way too repetitive. We may be able to use the API to do this
