Yes, if you have to copy the link first, it is very inconvenient. A "copy link" button would be a cool thing.

I'm glad that just clicking the link does work for me.

Let's wait for the upcoming chrome updates...

We added a new button. Now you can copy the ed2k link to your clipboard.

Maybe it's too late. But I think there is a solution out there that doesn't have to cause any trouble.

It does not affect direct copy links on other browsers.

Use JS to handle the click events, quite simple:

Looks promising, but I'm not sure it would work with ad blockers, etc. We have to test. In any case, it is an interesting idea, thanks!

I would probably add "onclick" to the href directly. The above event handler is executed if anything is clicked.

OK, I've implemented something. Please anybody test if clicking and copying ed2k links work OK in Chrome and other browsers.

I guess the advantage of this change is that now in non-Chrome browsers the link can be copied normally and in browsers that do not support normal ed2k links, you are forced to use the "Copy selected links" feature, so there is no way to copy invalid (%7C) links to clipboard, which has caused confusion.

BTW, what about the "Add all N links to your ed2k client" feature? It does not work anymore either, does it? Adding the first link works, but for the rest I get an error "Not allowed to launch 'ed2k://...' because a user gesture is required." So it seems for each link it is necessary to add a confirmation popup like "Do you want to add ed2k://..." Or does adding multiple links still work in some browsers?

Using Chrome and the "Copy selected links" button, FLM claims that the link(s) have been copied to the clipboard. However, there is nothing in the clipboard. It can not be Pasted into either eMule or Notepad. There are no error messages, there is simply nothing that results.

"Add all N links to your emule client" in Chrome does NOT add the links to eMule, but it jumps to the top of the FLM page.

Clicking just the ed2k link normally in FLM/Chrome still opens the link in eMule.

***
In Firefox, it works for clicking links normally / "Copy selected links" / AND for "Add all N links to your emule client."
***
In Edge, it works for clicking links normally. For "Copy selected links" it copies all links and they can all be pasted into eMule. (I only tested it on a thread that had 2 links in the post.) The "Add all N links to your emule client" only works for the FIRST link and not for the subsequent ones.

Everything works perfectly in my chromium browser (clicking the link and copy to clipboard).
