When I'm doing a API Call to "https://api.torn.com/faction/?selections=mainnewsfull&key=MyKey" I get null in mainnews.news when the faction name contains special characters, like in this specific news it's this "Ordnance Mafia declared war on Phoenix Rising."
One of my users reported the same thing to me - I'm glad this one isn't my problem :D
Not that this is coming from the personal events of the faction leader - not the faction news - so the same issue appears to be in multiple sections of the api
I'm never getting that? I have tried looking at the raw data within Postman. But a simple if statement fixes it in my code. Don't wanna remove a nice feature like that from Torn
Here you can see it in raw data. I really think it is on your end, but if removing the ability to have a faction name like that is the solution, I'd rather have the bug and use a IF statement in my code.
And I don't know what more Info you guys want. This has been marked as "Info Required" and "Confirmed" multiple times [:tongue:]
30/06/163:03:41 PMJUX HQ declared war on HT. You are contesting for their rank of #27.
From the API: "191350978": { "timestamp": 1467299030, "news": "<a class="t-red bold" href = "http://www.torn.com/factions.php?step=profile&ID=8989">JUX HQ</a> declared war on <a class="t-red bold" href = "http://www.torn.com/factions.php?step=profile&ID=9100">ArmyOfDarkness Recruiting</a>. You are contesting for their rank of #22." }, "191350968": { "timestamp": 1467299021, "news": null },
This is directly from the api.torn.com site: ...... "183278493": { "timestamp": 1456073390, "news": "A 7 day NAP has been accepted between <a href=http://www.torn.com/factions.php?step=profile&ID=11522>Phoenix Rising</a> & <a href=http://www.torn.com/factions.php?step=profile&ID=8981>Ordnance Mafia</a>" }, ..... I can see that you removed the 'Trademark' text, but now it's using < and > You probably used some escaping function?
And here's an example of how it looks in my script: [image: jebster.net] I donated 5 points and it didn't find it in the text as it couldn't find '>'
