Hash in Task name creates tag with "Use Smart Add" disabled #27

Open kisp opened 3 years ago

kisp commented 3 years ago

Hello,

I am on some random page (no pun intended):

https://changelog.com/podcast/127

This gives me for the Task name:

Keep a CHANGELOG with Olivier Lacan (The Changelog #127) |> Changelog

In my Moo Later Settings I have "Use Smart Add" disabled.

Still, this added (and created) a tag 127changelog in RTM.

This also happens to me every time I am on a github issue page. Usually, I try to rememeber to delete the hash # myself, but quite often I forget.

Maybe, as a workaround, Moo Later could delete that # character by itself?

It looks like a better approach would be to parse titles for smart add characters and wrap them in double quotes. https://www.rememberthemilk.com/help/answer/basics-smartadd-disablepertask

Parsing could be difficult. Might just be easier to strip the smart chars, which are ^ ! # @ ~ * = + //
