Page with tables - links are offset#129

When I highlight something and create a link, it works just fine, but the text that it applies the link to is shifted a few characters to the left or to the right. I have stopped adding links because of how annoying this is.

Hi Alexander, thank you for bringing this to my attention.

Would you be able to give me an example of the text, I’m unable to recreate it on my end.

This is through the actual wiki site, not through the Google doc.

When I create a link through the doc and click on it in the wiki, it opens a new tab to the doc instead of jumping to the wiki page. Is that supposed to happen?

Anyways, I attached a photo of what happens. In the photo I selected the word “human” and linked it to another page, but it linked the wrong text. Seems like the offset is always by for characters to the left or to the right.

Cool thanks for the image Alexander.

I wasn’t able to re-create the issue unfortunately:

I’m guessing there might be a table or something else on the page that might be causing it to be off.

If you are able to edit this page with some example content I can definitely look into it further.

I’m unable to recreate, but I have found an issue when a table is present. I’ll fix that while waiting for a response :)

Hey sorry for the late response. I played around with it and it all seemed to work fine except for the page with the table offsets. Thank you for helping out!!!
