Linking in CKEditor 5: URLs with top-level domain but without protocol should get a protocol added automatically

Created on 10 July 2017, over 7 years ago
Updated 1 April 2024, 10 months ago

Problem/Motivation

Typing drupal.org or example.com as the link will result in

<a href="drupal.org>something</a>

That's an invalid link.

Steps to reproduce

See above.

Proposed resolution

Default schemeless links to https:// using https://ckeditor.com/docs/ckeditor5/latest/features/link.html#adding-def...

Resulting UX:

Remaining tasks

Review.

User interface changes

Schemeless links get https:// prefixed automatically.

API changes

None.

Data model changes

None.

Release notes snippet

When typing URLs like "example.com/interesting-page", the missing protocol (https://) will be added automatically.

  • Needs product manager review

    It is used to alert the product manager core committer(s) that an issue represents a significant new feature, UI change, or change to the "user experience" of Drupal, and their signoff is needed. If an issue significantly affects the usability of Drupal, use Needs usability review instead (see the governance policy draft for more information).
