Nation/Ruler does not come up in search and non-unique Leader name


James II

Recommended Posts

What were you doing (or trying to do): I just happened across a nation with the same leader name as me. When I try to search his Leader or nation name he does not come up in the search.

What happened (describe thoroughly please): I saw https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=21747raiding with the same ruler name. I questioned how he could have the same leader name as me. When I go to search his ruler/nation it does not show up. I even tried copy/paste.

Any other relevant information: Others have come across the same problem when I ask them to search for him.

His former Ruler name was James Ironwood. It was changed at some point. That may be why he doesn't show up in searches. If you search James ironwood you find him.

I don't see anyone coming up as James Ironwood, can you link me to the nation you're talking about?

Oh I see now, you linked his nation, I was just missing your nation link.

 

Well, that is most odd. I'm not sure what's going on here yet.

It appears that the difference is the number of spaces between James and the II. I'm not sure how to proceed from here - for the time being, I'll let it slide I suppose.

You can copy/paste his ruler name from his Information screen and still it will be my nation that pops up in the search, not his.

Correct, your web browser is automatically truncating the extra space. However, if you type "James  II" into the search page, you'll get his nation and not yours.
