i always thought it was some security measure to prevent people posting full links and pointing them to another url.
anyway, if you remove the http part, it will show the description you want

I assumed the same. I noticed it in a thread I made some time ago where I wanted to post the store page for Race the Sun as the visible link but have a giveaway hidden if you clicked on it.
EDIT. In fact your suggestion is the same as what I did to fix it IIRC.

That's what I did in my latest train.
It used to worked right though, on SGv1. I'm guessing either since we can just type in a URL and it gets linkified, that's screwing with links, or it was a security measure that was added.

At least, the problem doesn't manifest itself with linked images. So it's just hyperlinks themselves which are at fault.

I can't stop watching this gif. What have you done to me?!

Yup, I can confirm it.
Happened to me once: posted the link to a ga but people got rickroll'd by this bug.. :(

Oh, let's hope cg finds time to fix this. In the meantime maybe some stabbing would do, otherwise I'm afraid we are lost.

Where's that attractive young chicken when things need stabbing?

It's not really helpful if it screws up your puzzle, right?

i can't, since it's not working. I actually had to work around it to make my last train.

It seems the parser first transform the link between the '[ ]' in an actual link, resulting in a void description for the second link '[](http://www.link.save.zelda)'. Never realized about that problem D:

You will only notice it if you're trying to make a puzzle using links that shows one thing but lead to a different one. I've succesfully used that technique a few times in the past, before cg added automatic conversion of links. This bug almost screwed up my latest train until I found a workaround (eliminating the http:// at the beginning of the displayed link)

There's an annoying bug in the link parser. If the link's description happen to contain an URL, then this is used as the link instead of the actal link content.
For example, if I type this:
[http://www.steamgifts.com/giveaway/weX1V/adventurer-manager](http://www.steamgifts.com/giveaway/Cc38M/bad-rats)I get this: http://www.steamgifts.com/giveaway/weX1V/adventurer-manager
When clicked, the link doesn't point to the Bad Rats giveaway as it should.
