Description Christian (Fuchs) 2015-09-20 20:33:17 UTC
Konversation allows to open a query by left-clicking on a nick in the IRC View.
When clicking on a nick with special characters (tested with: |) it converts that character to a html entity (or the likes) and opens a query with the wrong nick

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open konversation
2. Join a channel with someone with | in the nick  (or open a second connection with a nick containing |)
3. Have the | nick write something
4. click on the nick

Actual Results:  
Query with wrong nick opens

Expected Results:  
Query with correct nick opens

I've just tested this and can't replicate the issue.

Can you please test and confirm if this issue is still occurring or if this bug report can be marked as resolved.

The issue has been fixed for quite some time already.
