QuoteWhen my users add their twitter and facebook links in their profile, I have those icons appear below their avatar on each post.
However… the URLs that are created for those icons look like:
http://twitter.com/http://twit…..m/whatever
http://facebook.com/http://www…..s/whatever
In other words, the twitter and facebook url is duplicated. One of my users reported this to me and I can see it too.
the data entered in the profile should not include any url… it should just be their username/account… ie whatever
Visit 
Ah OK.
In that case I would suggest that you change the text on the screen to make that more obvious.
Currently: http://Twitter:
Should be: http://www.twitter.com/
That would be a clearer clue to only enter the last part of the URL. Maybe put a short note to that effect on the screen too.
yes, I have a scrap of paper on my desk to make the text labels more accurate, but keep seeming to forget… the user input should only be the account/user name…
and we likely wouldnt use www in a url like that since that is really deprecated and not needed (and less astethically appealing – though some might disagree on that)… ie http://twitter.com

We will discuss this…
While you're on this topic, consider discussing the ability to include a Facebook Group in the field instead of just a Username. In your copious free time of course.
For instance, I'd like my Facebook icon to link to this Group instead of a User wall:

Imagine that! Thanks.
Side Note: I had subscribed to this topic, and received email notification of your reply, but my Subscribed button above had no number next to it when I just reviewed a different topic even though you replied last night.
