Steps to reproduce
- Create a page with title that contains a hyphen. Example : hello-world
- Create a few anchors by inserting the Table of Content macro into the page.
- Copy the anchor URL and paste it on another Confluence page.
- Click onto the pasted link and you'll be directed to a broken anchor on the page.
Cause
The anchor is broken because the word after the hyphen on the page name is duplicated twice in URL.
Example for hello-world page. The word world is duplicated.
http://localhost:8090/display/S/hello-world#hello-world-world-what
Workaround
- Do not use hyphen in the page title
- Remove the duplicated word after the "#" in the URL and the anchor link should work fine (Tested on Confluence 6.3.3)
