Hyperlinks don't automatically cut off when pasting links in Firefox

[TheKDub]

Using Firefox Quantum v67.0.4 (64-bit) on Windows 10 1803.

The issue persists with all extensions disabled.

 

If I type a hyperlink manually such as https://www.google.com/ it doesn't continue to make the hyperlink after pressing space, however if I paste in a hyperlink and continue typing, https://www.google.com/ this happens. The hyperlink continues regardless of pressing space. The only way I've found to end the hyperlink is by starting a new lne entirely, typing there, then using backspace at the start of the line or delete at the end of the hyperlink to bring it back to that line. The hyperlink also continues if I use shift + enter to break the line.

 

I did not have this issue while using Google Chrome.

That shouldnt exist because links with spaces in them dont work. I guess its a bug, go tell the mozilla foundation

Things you learn to live with when using non-popular browsers. Line break after link works as temp fix.

Unfortunately this is a long term issue with the editor that we use (CKEditor), which isn't something that we can fix. I don't have any better workarounds for it either I'm afraid.

Darn. I'll just have to make due with starting new lines after pasting links then.

Thanks!

What I do to work around it is I paste the links or add a hyperlink after I've written the whole paragraph.

That seems to work fine most of the time.

I paste link, hit space once then line brake be twenty link and empty space. That way I can continue writing after link.
