D&D Compendium with links to 3rd party products

Hi everyone, This happen often when using the in-game compendium, for example i was reading something about the Battlemaster and then clicked "Fighter" to go to the class: But then, instead, Roll20 send me to this: This happens a lot inside the Compendium, but only now i think about posting so this is my only example 😅 Regards,
I've seen the same thing fairly often across the compendium. You should file a helpdesk ticket, but I wouldn't hold your breath for it to be fixed any time soon given the number of other things they are theoretically working on.

The problem here is the Autolinker, which is the bane of the Roll20 Compendium. Unfortunately, it's like kudzu or English ivy, and once it has invaded, it is very difficult to extricate. It's not a case of a Roll20 person making a bad link, but the Autolinker seeing the word "Fighter" and trying to be "helpful". It probably seemed like a good idea when the Compendium was very small, but is nightmarish now. I know that the folks at Roll20 hate it just as much if not more than the average user does, but it is apparently not a simple task to remove.
