Support for other protocols in links

[metbril]

I want to use tel:, skype: or whatsapp:// links in the homepage. Those are stripped by Hugo. To prevent this, the .url variable needs to be post-processed by the safeURL function.

This is the current code:

hallo-hugo/layouts/index.html

Line 19 in 0e587d1

<a rel="me" href="{{ .url }}" title="{{ .title }}">

href="{{ .url }}"

should become

href="{{ .url | safeURL }}"

Thanks for bringing this to my attention! I will look into this as soon as I have a bit of spare time.

@metbril I committed a fix for this. Could you check if this solves your problem? Thanks a lot!

I don't have access to a computer this week. Phone only. I'll chime back in asap.

Hi @EmielH and @metbril, as I needed this support for a project as well, I tested this and can confirm this works.

Thanks a lot! 👍 I'll close this now.
