Open Link in New Tab doenst add Magnet links / Mass adding magnet links to RTA

Open Ty-Grr opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

I use an extension called LinkClump which I can select a bunch of links and either Copy to Clipboard, open in new window or open in new tab.

I want to be able to select a bunch of magnet / .torrents and open them in RTA. Doing open in new tab for the magnet links says "A website wants to open this application" and then Open URL:Magnet Link, clicking that doesn't load through to RTA.

I've had a read through the previous issues and some people have requested somewhat the same things of adding multiple .torrents or magnets at once but I couldn't see an answer that would fit my scenario.

Normal clicking on the magnet links work but when there is like 20+ magnets I want to download, can be rather long to individually click on.

Heres is my link catching settings, I've tried messing around with some other settings but I don't know RegEx enough to work it ou. image

If there is no way to do it, that's fine but I figured i'd ask anyway.

for this particular use case, i'm guessing doing the open-in-new-tab route, as you chose, is the best option. the code for the new-tab grabbing functionality doesn't currently eat magnet links. ideally, this should be the case and i consider it an oversight.

but you can already try to get it working by adding another regex for the links. try:

magnet:.+

let me know if that works.

right click Open with new tab doesnt do anything. If I use my LinkClump on it, it opens to the same page as before.

Unfortunately that didn't work.
