Hello there - is the link the last thing you wrote in a text area? Can you please provide with some more information to better understand the issue?

Yes exactly. So, for example, I have a planet Draconis. If I type @dra and then click on the associated article, the associated link information populates correctly in the field and saves. When I go to view it, it will display as @dra, not the linked article that populated when I clicked on it using the mention system. Let me know if I can clarify any further.

it is enough clarification - you need to hit the space bar if this is the last thing you typed so the save process is triggered.
