Ask HN: Is the Hacker News bookmarklet broken?
I use the bookmarklet here:
https://news.ycombinator.com/bookmarklet.html
But when I submit, the page only has the URL of the page I'm submitting and NOT THE TITLE.
Anyone else experiencing this?
- testsubmit 5y agoI emailed the mods.
- soheilpro 5y agoYes, the "t" query param seems be completely ignored.
- dang 5y agoYes—sorry. I changed the code that handles that the other day, and introduced a bug. And I thought I tested that part! but it should be fixed now, anyhow.
- NicoJuicy 5y agoAh yes, I use that trick for easily posting from a webapp. Title indeed isn't parsed anymore or could be because of a %20 or smthg. I hadn't checked the cause actually.
- ColinWright 5y agoSome problem, I have no information, but would also like an answer and/or fix. I've taken to Ctrl-C on the title before clicking the bookmarklet so I can Ctrl-V it into the Title field.
- robgibbons 5y agoThe bookmarklet is adding the encoded title parameter, but it looks like HN isn't parsing it properly.
