Add Media URL Shortcut

Post by shoshk » 29 Aug 2018 10:57

Hi Mike,

I love this plugin. But today, I tried to add a shortcut and encountered the following error:

... 52: invalid capture index ...

I tried to take a look at it to see what's going on and also did a bit of googling. Somehow, it seems to be related to % chars in the URL and something about encoding and decoding and ... Alas, I wasn't able to get much further than that before my head started exploding.

The URL I am trying to add is:

https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903 ... cc=1909088

Thanks for your help,
Shoshana

Sorry, I keep meaning to publish the fix for that known problem to the Plugin Store.

Try ATTACHMENTS Add Media URL Shortcut Plugin Version 1.1.1 Date 30 Jun 2017.

Better late than never, this Plugin has been updated in the Plugin Store to Version 1.2 which fixes the problem.
