If you want to extend the default URL functionality, you can add URL overrides. An override has at least:
- regex: the override will be applied to URLs that match the regular expression;
- command: the new URL that will replace the old one, usually should contain placeholders.
Add the following URL override to add a button that allows a user to open the same website replacing HTTP with HTTPS protocol.
Field | Content |
---|---|
Regex | ^http://.* |
Command | https://{url:rmvscm} |
when done correctly, all URLs that use HTTP will have a button to open the same website using the HTTPS protocol. Note that you should consider just replacing all URLs that use HTTP with their safer alternative when possible.
Add a URL to the entry that we be overriden later:
ftp://{username}:{password}@example.com
this URL may already work if the FTP client correctly sets up URL protocol handlers. Otherwise, add the following URL override (Linux):
Field | Content |
---|---|
Regex | ^ftp://.* |
Command | cmd://filezilla {url} |
when done correctly, all matching URLs will have a button to execute the command, launching the FireZilla client.
