Domain Extensions

9 years ago

I've been making word clouds using words that include domain extensions that I have been pasting in from Excel like:
electricbrush.com
centrevilleplumbing.com
answermachines.com
adelaideproperties.com
bestcampuses.com
costoflivingbystate.com

After pasting, the tool is removing the ".", and listing "com" times the number of domains and stripping the domain extension from the coresponding domain name. This is something new, because it was not happening with the previous 6 word clouds I had created before.

When you paste the text Tagul tries to identify whether you use plain text (that should be parsed for words) or use special format.

Since you were putting each word (domain name) on a new line Tagul
might think that you used special format and kept you words as they were.

The example you provided in your post is treated as plain text (that is parsed and misc characters like .com are removed) since there are too few signs that it is special format. To fix it please add ";" at the end of the line. E.g. your text should be:

electricbrush.com;
centrevilleplumbing.com;
answermachines.com;
adelaideproperties.com;
bestcampuses.com;
costoflivingbystate.com;
