Share extension has trouble with urls containing #

DEVONthink To Go Tips

When saving in Safari URLs with the “#” characater via the share extension as a webarchive to DTTG, the URL gets modified. DTTG then cannot download URL and the created webarchive does not contain the page content. :frowning:

Here an example: The URL https://github.com/ickc/pantable/issues/32#issuecomment-381316636 arrives in DTTG as https://github.com/ickc/pantable/issues/32%23issuecomment-381316636 and the webarchives just shows just the messaeg “not found”.

Looks like an encoding issue, right? Maybe GitHub could be more forgiving here, but it would be great if DTTG didn’t modify the URL in the first place.

BTW, on the Mac in DTP it all works fine.
