If you have TWO email addresses in the one anchor tag (I am going to use # instead of @ in the example, to avoid triggering my copy of EmailShroud.):

<a href=”mailto:email1#example.com”>email2#example.com</a>

even if those email addresses are the same, EmailShroud will protect the first one normally, but drop the domain-name from the second one.

The workaround is to either have the email address straight in the text (EmailShroud will add the link automatically), or replace the internal address with some other text, or accept the dropped domain name.

It is working exactly as designed – I found I had written commented code for exactly this scenario. However, I haven’t yet had time to reconsider my strategy and decide if this is a bug in the design. It isn’t yet clear to me what the right behaviour should be – especially because the two address might be different.

Weird, because I downloaded the plugin from the “download here” link at the top of the page, and in my WordPress installation in the plugins area it says I’m using v2.2… could it be that one of the scripts in the plugin folder is accidentally an older version?

The behaviour you ask for was introduced in version 2.0. The latest version is 2.2.

If you upgrade to the latest version, you should get what you want.

I’m really excited about this plugin, but think I must be missing something… I’ve read through this site but couldn’t find an answer to my question…

The plugin is stripping out the @ and the domain after the name in the display of the email address… is that just how it works? It would be nice to have the full email address appear on the page but be protected at the same time… am I missing something obvious?

Thanks,
Diane

Also, I didn’t see any email addresses on the check-out pages, so you may like to try this work-around hack to turn it off on those pages.

Sorry to hear about your difficulties.

I haven’t tried it with the Shopp. It costs money, so I am afraid I won’t be testing it.

I assume it contains email addresses embedded in the URLs, or some other known limitation. I went to your site, and looked at the source-code in the check-out process (at least until the point of requiring money) and I couldn’t see any bits of the code that might confuse EmailShroud, so this remains a mystery. Feel free to send more information about the problem, so I can investigate further.

Thanks!
