Filter reference Bold not working with the word "Wealth".
I am making a generator using the tables in an NPC book I purchased. One entry is "Wealth" and here is the script as written: [Wealth >> Bold]. Normally it should output Wealth but instead it outputs [Wealth >> Bold] exactly as typed. I can replace "Wealth" with "Money" and the bold script works just fine, but as soon as I put "Wealth" back it stops working correctly.
Did I discover a bug inadvertently?

I have discovered the Bold bug that does not work with "Wealth" also does not work with any word that starts with "wea", this includes "Wear" and "Weather".
Strange one. It fails for me with any string beginning with "W" or "w". But, specifically it's the [W causing the problem. Just put a space between the [ and the W.
[ Wealth >> Bold] works perfectly fine, and the output appears to remove the leading space. Something in IPP or something with HTML? I don't know.
I would guess that is has something to do with the parsing engine mistaking it as a [When] conditional. A space works as Levendor has mentioned, you can also use the escape character (\).
I think I will start escaping text as a best practice. Thanks for bringing this up.
Thanks! It has been so long since I've been here that I completely forgot about this. I don't even remember what I did to correct this in my generator...lol. I appreciate the help!
