Actually, what I think you see is
Mr.
Test
What's happening is that the macro is being returned as [[Mr. Test]] and
then stripped of the brackets at the WikifyWidget. One work-around is to
add additional brackets back in your macro.
Also, this
var regex = /\[.*?\]\]/g;
Should be this
var regex = /\[\[.*?\]\]/g;
So then we end up with:
/*\
title: $:/core/modules/macros/roles.js
type: application/javascript
module-type: macro
Making some replacements in Textinputs
\*/
(function(){
/*jslint node: true, browser: true */
/*global $tw: false */
"use strict";
/*
Information about this macro
*/
exports.name
= 'roles';
exports.params = [{ name: 'text' }];
/*
Run the macro
*/
exports.run = function(text) {
var regex = /\[\[.*?\]\]/g;
var found = text.match(regex);
var remove = "[[" + found.join("]] [[") + "]]";
//var result = remove.replace(/,/g, ' ');
var result = remove ;
return result
} ;
})();
Now you get the links listed one after another. However, they're not listed
AS links because they're viewed as text strings. You
can probably use <$link> widget to turn them back into links, if that's
what you want.
Good luck
