      Issue Summary

      When a user adds an email address or text that mimics a domain such as sample.sample, the values are treated as a hyperlink on a Text Field (single line).

      The email address is treated as a hyperlink due to the 'dot+characters' from the domain, i.e foo@acme.com or foo@acme.acme.

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Create a custom field with the Text Field (Single Line) type
      2. Entering either of the sample texts convert the value to hyperlinks:
        1. user@eaxmple.com
        2. sample.sample

      Expected Results

      Email is rendered as text

      Actual Results

      Two symptoms have been identified:

      • Email addresses are rendered as
        mailto:user@example.com
      • Text that mimics a domain is rendered with leading double slashes: //sample.sample

      Workaround

      Currently, there is no known workaround for this behavior. A workaround will be added here when available
