Manual talk:$wgUrlProtocols

File links

I found out that

$wgUrlProtocols[] = "file:";

breaks images like

 [[File:John_Surtees.JPG|150px]]

If I use

$wgUrlProtocols[] = "file:///";

everything works as expected.

I used MediaWiki 1.20.0 with Firefox 18.0.1. If above observation is true for other configurations as well, I think the article should be updated to reflect this. --Pigpen (talk) 15:23, 25 January 2013 (UTC)

I have now documented this bug in the manual page. Using file:// not with three, but with two slashes should help. --87.123.46.59 13:06, 6 January 2016 (UTC)

Can not add the rdp protocol

Add to LocalSettings.php (the receiver is taken from here: UNC_links):

$wgPFEnableStringFunctions = true; array_push($wgUrlProtocols, 'rdp://');

But MediaWiki in view-mode displays text: [rdp://full_address=s:ip] instead of url

Something can be corrected to add the correct formation of URI RDP links?

As of MediaWiki 1.35, RDP links appear to work fine when enabled with just:

$wgUrlProtocols[] = "rdp://";
