Problems with Scoutbook Plus calendar event text getting garbled, and missing links in automated email reminders

Regarding Scoutbook Plus calendar events and the email reminders that come from them, I have noticed several problems that reduce the effectiveness of the communication to troop members and their families.

  1. Problem #1: hyperlinks in the body of the calendar event get replaced with a different and incorrect link

    Problem #2: The hyperlinks in email reminders are sometimes NOT clickable links. They are simply blue underlined text without a link.

    Problem #3: in the email reminder, the text content in a calendar event is sometimes garbled with extra characters added when the email reminder goes out.

See the attached PDF which has screen shots of these problems. If you need more information please let me know. Thank you!

@ScottM_Dallas - are you using word or other word processing app to create your text for the event

@ScottM_Dallas

I have passed your PDF on to the developers but I do need to know if the event descriptions were created by copy/paste and if so what was the source tool.

@Stephen_Hornak and @edavignon, I copied from Word and pasted into the calendar event. In some cases I also copied from Gmail and pasted into the calendar event.

The event descriptions were copy/pasted from Microsoft Word and, in some cases, Gmail.
