    Many many thanks for all your efforts with wordpress/buddypress. You are awesome!

    So I have noticed that the hashbuddy app reads the # used for color codes in both shortcodes and with tags, such as span tag within the post/page.

    I have a temp fix by using color names rather than hex color. For example color=’grey’ rather than color=’#333333′

  • Indeed, if a user copy and paste text from another web with colored words seems to traslate css online. That create code style css inline (ugly).

    HashBuddy breaks the content of the page or entry, including information hiding.

    My solution from ignorance has been to modify the code of the plugin by putting comment one of the last lines.
    /* add_filter( 'the_content', 'hashbuddy_posts_hashtags_filter' ); */

    All this in exchange for giving a great feature.
    A tear has fallen down my cheek ??

    I just read this link (mental note: read inputs before writing).

    It is a clue to look for a solution (mental note: review patterns).
    Greetings.

    Thanks @srsiempre. Editing out that line fixed it for me. Problem is I use page anchors and the solution in the other post doesn’t work for that. There is no space before the # in a page anchor yet Hashbuddy still breaks pages containing page anchors – but with that line edited out everything seems fine.

    I think @modemlooper should consider updating the plugin accordingly unless that filter for “the_content” is essential for something I don’t know about…
