Links in About text not working

Hi,

In a Discourse instance for an organizational intranet, we are using the Boxes with SubCategories desktop category page style.

Many departments have placed hyperlinks in the About text for their departmental categories About Topic.

These hyperlinks all seem to be redirecting to the parent category.

Is it possible for these hyperlinks to take the person who clicks on them directly to the linked resource?

Fixed here:

https://github.com/discourse/discourse/commit/35a1912e2d992b5669be3df6a12024e84089a3d9

The complication was that we want clicks on the description text to link to the category, except when there are links in the text, which should behave as normal links.

If you update your site later today it should include the fix.
