HelpHow to link names?
In the names I add, it wont create a link to a name i put in the description. Like for example, I added Jaythan saying it was a variant of Jathan and the name Jathan wasn't highlighted and i couldn't click on it. Everyone else's does so am I missing something

[Name] = links a name
[!Name] links a given name (only needed when not on name site, purple banner site)
[$Name] links a surname (only needed when not on surname site, green banner site)
[%Name] links a place name (only needed when not on place name site, red banner site)
[Name-] links a name but doesn't bold and underline (see here: https://surnames.behindthename.com/name/kosach/submitted) - this can be combined with any of above three

It will also look like that if there is no definition for the name but site has it in popularity / namesake (see here: https://surnames.behindthename.com/name/s18nejderman/submitted)
And it will be red if linked to name that is not at all on site (see here: https://surnames.behindthename.com/name/zhytomyrets/submitted)
