Greetings All,
Blog Newbie here, so be gentle!
I have b2evo set up within our company network, as a product development blog so it's not accessible to the outside web. I would like to know if there is a way I can add a link to a file that is not accessible by http?
I have tried adding the link similar to this: file://\\dir1\dir2\file.pdf
and most iterations of slashes going this way and that, but each time, b2evo tells me that I have an invalid URL.
Can someone help me with some insights?
Thank You
I don't know of any way to link to a file that's not accessible through the web server.
If you want to get rid of the invalid url messages, then you can disable the html validator built into b2evolution. Edit /conf/_formatting and set $use_html_checker to 0.
Then you can try your code and see if it works.
Note: Turning off the checker is normally not recommended, as it's a security risk. But, since your site is only on an internal network, it should be ok.
