URLs in custom bbcodes are parsed

Details

Description

If a custom profile field is designed to hold a URL, that URL is parsed into an "<a href" link anchor when the VALUE is passed to the template in viewtopic_body and memberlist_view. This preformatted anchor, complete with html comments, cannot be used in a user-formatted link, such as if they wanted to include an image or such.

For instance, when I type "www.google.com" into my profile field, it is parsed to "<Unable to render embedded object: File (//www.google.com">www.google.com</a><) not found.-- w -->" in the PROFILE_fieldname_VALUE, so I cannot format the URL as I like in memberlist_view or viewtopic_body.

An image of what? The problem is the HTML the profile field is rendered as.
Suppose I create a custom profile field designed to hold a URL, and then want to format that profile field into an link with an image anchor, rather than a text one, or if I want that custom profile field to hole an image url, to be used in an HTML <img tag. I cannot do it because the profile_field VALUE routine returns the value od the field as the HTML I show above in my comment. The VALUE I want returned is simply www.google.com
