Pasting URLs always causes them to be shortened.

[ccoles146]

Describe the bug

Trying to insert a URL into a Markdown or Plain Text file. The URL is automatically shortened so that it cannot be read. This happens also when I use "paste as plain text" option.
If I type the URL by hand then after a short pause it gets shortened but the link can be removed by pressing Ctrl+Z
In the case of pasting then the link cannot be removed.

Steps to reproduce

1. Create a new Plain Text File or Markdown file.
2. Paste in a URL using either Ctrl+V or right-click Paste or right-click Paste as plain text

Expected behavior

The URL is made into links only in Documents not in plain text files. In Markdown files the URL should only be shortened on the "Preview" window and not in the edit window.

Actual behavior

When pasting a URL such as https://outlook.com the URL gets automatically shortened to https://ou... you can neither read nor edit the URL.

Setup

Proxmox 13 with Debian 14 LXC container with Docker Compose installed. Separate container running Caddy reverse proxy.

Details available on request, although I assume this is normal behaviour out of the box.

Additional context

none

I cannot reproduce this, but maybe I'm misunderstanding the issue. Are you talking about the standard text editor? Could you please add a screenshot or video?

[ccoles146]

Here you can see in both images. I'm not sure what you mean by standard text editor, but I think that is what I am using, it is not Collabora. I saw that OwnCloud has a setting to change this behaviour but I'm not sure where it is in OpenCloud and if it is the cause. It happens across different Windows computers using Edge or Firefox.

I still can't reproduce it:

There have been some changes to the line break behavior in the editor recently though. Which OpenCloud version are you running?

[JammingBen]

Ah, now I got it. For me it only happens with long URLs.

We'll have to look into it, thanks for reporting! Moving this issue to the Web repository.

Unfortunately this behavior is coming from the link shortening feature via the last md-editor-v3
update.

It's not very intuitive, I think we should report it upstream.

The issue should be reproducible in the vendors example as well

I have reported upstream, you can see the exact behaviour direct on the website you posted @AlexAndBear
Issue is here: imzbf/md-editor-v3#972

[AlexAndBear]

@ccoles146 Thank you!

Apparently there is an option to solve this.

removing the extension with type='linkShortener' will prevent folding.

There is some additional detail provided in another issue #951 - Is this something you can make permanent for OpenCloud? Is the same code used for the Plain Text File function? So this would solve both use-cases.

Actually we updated the package to have especially that feature. It helps big time when displaying b64 images. Honestly I would wait for a response from md-editor-v3 team
