Bug? URL being truncated on web snapshot

szarka
I'm seeing what looks like a bug when attempting to snapshot `https://udlguidelines.cast.org/more/frequently-asked-questions/` using the Chrome connector with Zotero 9.0.4.

The canonical URL for this page is clearly given in the source:

```

```

However, the parent item is given the value `https://udlguidelines.cast.org` in the `URL` field.

The filename for the snapshot itself is also `udlguidelines.cast.org.html`.

I get similar behavior with other pages on this site.

Is this a bug? Or a configuration issue on the site? Seems like the former, since the site gives a canonical URL.

    Whoops! I didn't realize the forum doesn't support markdown. Also looks like HTML isn't getting escaped properly. :( Here's the code for the canonical URL missing in the above:

    link rel="canonical" href="https://udlguidelines.cast.org/more/frequently-asked-questions/"

    It uses the open graph metadata:
    <meta property="og:url" content="https://udlguidelines.cast.org">

    Not sure what's right here conceptually, but obviously the site isn't set up well. The og:url should be the current URL.

    (use HTML tags for formatting; we've been asking for markdown for years; it'll happen eventually ;)

    Ah-ha!

    Thanks. As an economist, I wasn't expecting tech support from Adam Smith today. ;)

    Open source tech support is basically invisible hand meets fellow feeling :D
