This is why you need to learn how to format your example text/content so that we can solve your problem quicker as you won’t get incorrect answers.
1. This forum might have or already changed your text
When pasting text into this forum, you should format the example text using the rich-text editor, otherwise the forum software might modify the displayed text, and you might get incorrect answers from others because of it.
Some things this forum software might do to mangle your text:
– remove extra spaces (which may be necessary)
– convert links to titles (when copied is incorrect)
– incorrect joined links
– convert single and double quotes to smart angled quotes ()
– emojis
– etc.
This interferes with you receiving correct answers, because it:
– makes JSON invalid (you can verify when copy-paste into https://jsonformatter.org)
– makes incorrect text examples when we need to build a pattern for text parsing
2. To prevent this in future, please format text in code blocks
Here are two ways to format text so that it won’t be changed by the forum:
A. Type code block manually
Add three backticks ```
before and after the content/bundle, like this:
```
content goes here
```
B. Highlight and click the format button in the editor
3. You might need to re-copy the original text
Once the post has been submitted, it’s too late to format it since it’s already butchered, and you need to make a re-copy of the text, and format it before submitting the forum post.
Hope this helps! Let me know if there are any further questions or issues.
