Changed \ to / in my links and all is well. Wish WordPress would just allow the file: protocol. Starting to seem like every update breaks this once I get it fixed.

I think I got this working but it doesn’t work for the link manager links. From some other topics the link-manager.php file needs to be edited but I don’t see it in 3.3.1.

Anyone else using WordPress internally to link to different file shares so users can browse your blog and click links which open up specific files hosted on a file server like docs, etc

I located another file in /wp-includes/functions.php that has the allowed protocols. I added ‘file’ to the list but still doesn’t work. I really need to be able to create links to files on our internal file servers with this latest version but nothing is working.

No one has any advise on how to fix this with the new code?

Tried that along with a machine that has never access the site and a brand-new clean install of Windows XP with IE 7 and still the same issue. Don’t understand why IE is trying to redirect and Firefox isn’t. This sucks! Everyone should just use Firefox but unfortunately there are too many users that still depend on IE.

Any other thoughts?

No one else is experiencing this problem?
