Question - General Forum markup help

I'm trying to get the markup for hyperlinks to work properly on my publisher profile. I found this guide and am trying to put in the following links:
  • my twitter
  • my website
  • my gmc profile page
  • my forum profile page
  • my Ludum Dare profile page
  • my Global Game Jam profile page

This is the markup I'm using:

Code: 
[@csanyk]
[website]
[GMC]|[Forum]
[LD48]
[GGJ]

[@csanyk]:https://twitter.com/csanyk
[website]:https://csanyk.com
[GMC]:http://gmc.yoyogames.com/index.php?showuser=179651
[Forum]:https://forum.yoyogames.com/index.php?members/csanyk.139/
[LD48]:http://www.ludumdare.com/compo/author/csanyk/
[GGJ]:http://globalgamejam.org/users/csanyk
This is the results:

publisher profile with bad links.png

The link @csanyk incorrectly points to my website url, csanyk.com. The GMC link is correct. The Forum link incorrectly points to my Ludum Dare url, and the GGJ link is correct. The links text for csanyk.com and ld48 aren't rendering.

Am I doing something wrong or is there a bug in the way the markup gets parsed and rendered?

Also, why aren't my line breaks respected? Do I need to do something in markup to make line breaks render?

Well, these aren't tips. I'm asking a problem, since the markup isn't working properly. Feel free to follow me or use the chat system to talk about offtopic stuff. I'd like to keep this thread clean so I can get an answer to my question.

OK I figured it out, and it's working now. I used this markup:

Code: 
[@csanyk] 

[@csanyk]:https://twitter.com/csanyk

[csanyk.com]

[csanyk.com]:https://csanyk.com

[GMC forum]

[GMC forum]:https://forum.yoyogames.com/index.php?members/csanyk.139/

This renders properly, and the extra blank lines between the links create the line breaks I had wanted. Yay.
