• The user submission link address requires that you type a “https://” or “https://” for the link. Are you able to not require this? I can see just about anyone first typing just “domain.com” and getting the “input value is not a correct URL” error and confusing them and I doubt they would know how to fix it.

    This is a limitation of the javascript validation library that I am using for the site. The rule it offers to check if the field contains a URL does not have an option to specify that the protocol is optional.

    That being said, I have just modified the message to:

    “The input value is not a correct URL. Requires https://.”

    Please update to new version that will be out shortly and consider donating to support this plugin’s development.

    Yannick,

    Oops. I seem to have messed up something with the upload process. I thought I had send it out over the week-end. I will only be able to look into it tomorrow night and make sure it goes out. Sorry about that.

    Just pushed out the fixes I made last week-end. Sorry for the delay.

    Thanks Yannick,
    I just realized another (maybe better option) would be to just put the value of the field to value=”https://”

    Or rather in addition to the notice since the user could still manually delete that text, you’d still want to notify them about it before submitting.

    Make sense. I will add that in within the next couple of days.

    Just pushed out new version setting default value to https://

    ?? It was fine before.. I Really really need to remove that default: value=”https://”
    like it was before… where do i remove it from?

    Plugin Author Yannick Lefebvre

    (@jackdewey)

    What issues does having the default cause, since it needs to be entered anyways?

    Plugin Author Yannick Lefebvre

    (@jackdewey)

    I can look at adding an option to display it or not.
