Right : Hashtags # work very well on identica and twitter with search tab. But on identica, there is also an option for groups : http://identi.ca/group
Name of group has a ! before. Example : if you subscribe to Ubuntu group, when someone post a message with !Ubuntu, you will receive it even if you are not following his timeline. This part works well in Gwibber, I receive all the messages from the groups I have joined. But contrary to the #hashtags, !groups are not clickable links and do not allow to do a search in identica groups. According identi.ca support, there is no group search api end point right now http://status.net/open-source/issues/2876 So, question is : if a word has a "!" just before it without space between them (like !gwibber), is it possible to make it as link and redirect to : http://identi.ca/group/gwibber If group does not exist, this will display an error message "Not found" If yes, it would allow to subscribe easily to a group on identica web page. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Gwibber Bug Heros, which is subscribed to Gwibber. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/585095 Title: Gwibber doesn't turn !tags into Identi.ca community links Status in Gwibber: Confirmed Status in “gwibber” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: gwibber PROBLEM An inconsistency in Gwibber's formatting wherein #hashtags and @replies are turned into links, in its display of Identi.ca streams, but !community mentions are not. HOW TO REPRODUCE 1. Use Gwibber to post a status update on Identi.ca which includes the !tag of a community you belong to. !aliases work for purposes of bugtesting also (Identi.ca allows community administrators to assign multiple aliases to !community names). 2. Note that while @replies and #hashtags are automatically turned into links in your Identi.ca stream, the !community name is not. EXPECTED BEHAVIOR Everything that would be a link on the Identi.ca web app itself will be a link in Gwibber.
