Remember to cover the basics, that is, what you expected to happen and
what in fact did happen.  You don't know how to make a good report?  See

     https://orgmode.org/manual/Feedback.html#Feedback

Your bug report will be posted to the Org mailing list.
------------------------------------------------------------------------

By default Org prompts you to make sure you really want to execute the code in an elisp link; as the docstring for org-link-elisp-confirm-function says, just think about a link like [[elisp:(shell-command "rm -rf ~/*")][Web Search]]!

But the formatting of the default confirmation message leaves something to be desired. The function org-link--open-elisp which is in charge of confirming that you want to execute the code does this:

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(funcall org-link-elisp-confirm-function
          (format "Execute %S as Elisp? "
                  (org-add-props path nil 'face 'org-warning)))
#+end_src emacs-lisp

And the combination of capital %S with the propertized path produces confirmation prompts like the following:

 Execute #("(describe-variable 'org-capture-templates)" 0 42 (face org-warning)) as Elisp? 

Notice that instead of /being/ propertized with the org-warning face it shows a textual representation of the propertize string!

I'd suggest fixing this by /not/ propertizing the link target.

Hi Omar,

Thanks for the report, I’ve fixed this in b3ceafd0 :)

Timothy, could you, please, commit a similar fix for shell: links. They 
have the same problem introduced in the same commit 
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs/org-mode.git/commit/?id=a486d9cbd7491741554944a116f81b02f6b35e4b

(old function name was org--open-elisp-link and the code was surrounded 
with quotes)

Thank you, Timothy, I can confirm that it works now.

P.S.: Just to have similar report cross-linked: the following is fixed:
