Dmitri Litvinenko 3 Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 When I pasted web links, it showed nice - title, when click - goes to url. Now it shows just raw html. What happened? Link to comment
Level 5* gazumped 12,021 Posted March 15, 2022 Level 5* Share Posted March 15, 2022 Hi. Where are you copying from; how are you copying? (Windows clipboard?) and where are you pasting? Existing note, new note or external document? Link to comment
Evernote Expert agsteele 3,055 Posted March 15, 2022 Evernote Expert Share Posted March 15, 2022 V6 of Evernote is no longer supported and no changes are being made to it. My guess is that the HTML page you copied this from is malformed or at least non-standard. Link to comment
Dmitri Litvinenko 3 Posted March 15, 2022 Author Share Posted March 15, 2022 Hi, Copying from Firefox, using add-on https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/copy-title-or-url , anchored link. Pasting to existing note. This worked fine before. FYI: In the local Evernote storage SQLite file, the 'old' link stored as <a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4846340/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1" rev="en_rl_none">Hidden Figures (2016) - IMDb</a> - Good! now: href="<a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4846340/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1">https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4846340/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1</a>">Hidden Figures (2016) - IMDb | <a href="https://www.imdb.com/">https://www.imdb.com/</a></a> - WTF?

Evernote Expert agsteele 3,055 Posted March 15, 2022 Evernote Expert Share Posted March 15, 2022 Evidently the code is being converted into ASCII. Copy and paste into a text editor and see what the code looks like. It could easily be that either the website has changed or a recent update to the browser has changed things. Link to comment

Dmitri Litvinenko 3 Posted March 15, 2022 Author Share Posted March 15, 2022 Rephrasing my question. Is anyone able to create a note like this? :https://www.evernote.com/l/ACJG5Ut5JplIf5BxlZjJMQMSqAS7LwUPEpg/ I was able before, now - can't. 1 Link to comment

Evernote Expert agsteele 3,055 Posted March 16, 2022 Evernote Expert Share Posted March 16, 2022 Since Evernote 6 is frozen, unchanged and not receiving any support you really need to work out what else has changed on your PC. I wish you success in resolving this. Link to comment
Level 5* gazumped 12,021 Posted March 16, 2022 Level 5* Share Posted March 16, 2022 Still confused here - and I'm using v6.25, not v10. I tracked down the original web link here... And copy / pasted to a note... (via Ctrl+C / Ctrl+V from the browser page) - which got me exactly what it says in the address bar. Which I also Ctrl-K'd into my own link (you'll have to take my word as to the content) - and synced the final result. Also Simplified and Removed Formating in that note. Nothing changed. So it doesn't appear that v6.25 has changed... Link to comment

My guess - Evernote changed Evernote Markup Language engine http://xml.evernote.com/pub/enml2.dtd Probably they did it to fix/improve Evernote 10, but broke functionality of Evenote 6. Look at this article https://dev.evernote.com/doc/articles/enml.php ENML is formally defined in http://xml.evernote.com/pub/enml2.dtd. The content of each note within the Evernote service must strictly comply with this ENML DTD. The service will validate a note's content against this DTD before accepting any call to NoteStore.createNote or NoteStore.updateNote. Link to comment

Could you please do some experiments for me? 1. Copy-Paste Hidden Figures link you created to the same note. I had same link before, but plain text now. 2. Copy-Paste <a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4846340/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1" rev="en_rl_none">Hidden Figures (2016) - IMDb</a> to your note (it's the way how Evernote saves links in the database) Before I had Hidden Figures, now I have just the text above. Thanks! Link to comment

Please do the same, but hit Enter button after paste What is your exact version of Evernote? 6.25.? I have 6.25.3.9348 Link to comment
Dmitri Litvinenko 3 Posted March 18, 2022 Author Share Posted March 18, 2022 Thanks everyone! Problem solved. I was on my side - some processes running from Goodix folder, not sure what was it. Now Evernote worked as before! 1 1 Link to comment

Mesoman 20 Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 Pasting a raw URL only sometimes results in a link rather than just text. I So https://code-boxx.com/simple-pwa-example/ in my V10 Evernote pastes as simple text. Other times, I past a URL in there and it turns blue - like a link. Also, clicking on some that are blue does not go to the browser, it brings up an Evernote home page. Others go to the default browser. Something is messed up here, but I can't find the pattern. I see some URL's in blue on a page, some as text, some of the blue work, some don't - all on the same Evernote page. Evernote 10.40.9 on MACOS, although with the new rewrite, it should be relatively platform independent. Link to comment
Level 5* gazumped 12,021 Posted July 21, 2022 Level 5* Share Posted July 21, 2022 Hi. Please search the forum for issues to do with links. This particular thread is for Windows v6.25 and you should be able to find discussions with more relevant content. URLs in general are meant to appear as clickable links, not plain text. It is a known problem that links containing the word 'home' in any context will go to Evernote's Home Page for some weird reason. Evernote are aware and are fixing that issue. Link to comment
Level 5 PinkElephant 8,695 Posted July 21, 2022 Level 5 Share Posted July 21, 2022 @Mesoman Sometimes an URL may not be recognized. Select it, right click and set the hyperlink yourself. About the URLs leading to the Home page instead of the URL: It is a known bug, fixed with the desktop version 10.41. When you go to the download page on the EN website, you already get it.

I find that if a URL pastes as plain text, putting punctuation or a space after it will generally activate the link. I have no idea why this happens, but fortunately it's fairly easy to correct. But that's in Windows; may be different on Mac. Link to comment

Yep - same experience; it may be something to do with the way that the system 'checks' a word for spelling when there's a space or punctuation after it, signifying that (as far as you're concerned) you've finished typing it. - Otherwise you'd be peppered by 'wrong spelling' errors all the way through until completion. Same process may apply to adding the URL link and formatting. Link to comment
Mesoman 20 Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 Thanks! Based on posts above, I tried putting a period after them, but that didn't work. But putting a space after it does work. It's a bug - text editor needs to get a bit smarter. But thanks to repliers, I now have a way around it. 2 Link to comment
