AI-generated summary

Today, while clicking on the xLog footer social media icons, it was discovered that the redirection was incorrect, despite the correct link being written. Upon observation, it was found that the redirection added the social media domain prefix automatically based on the platform name. Therefore, the correct method is to go to xLog settings, select social platforms, and choose the Identity option (taking the name from the link). The provided image makes this clear. The incorrect links were posted without testing, leading to the discovery only now. The person suggests that the xLog prompt should clarify that the Identity field does not require the full link, only the name, and provide an example for better user experience.

Today, by chance, I clicked on the xLog footer social media icon and found that it redirected incorrectly, even though the correct link was written.

Upon closer observation, the link after redirection is: https://twitter.com/twitter.com/leidichen

The website automatically recognizes and adds the social domain name prefix based on the platform name.

Therefore, the correct way to write it is:

xLog Settings → Social Platforms → Identity (take the name from the link)

As shown in the picture, it is clear at a glance.

When I added the link, the icon appeared correctly and I was confident, so I didn't test it. That's why I only noticed it now.

Did you fill it in correctly?

Furthermore, I found that links to platforms other than mainstream social media platforms do not redirect after testing.

I think xLog should clarify in the prompt that Identity does not require the full link, only the name needs to be filled in, and provide an example to enhance user experience.
