**YOU NAILED IT... GREAT WORK**
and
I'll keep this running until after the weekend, to ensure there are no side effects or unexpected FTL crashes, but I'm confident! Hope to see this in beta5 soon.
**Thanks again for your time, dedication, effort, persistence, …**
`edit`
If somebody is going to write a manual on how to use this great new feature, you should emphasize CTRL clicking the link will open the group management page in a new tab, which makes life even easier.

What happens if you click normally on the link? I designed it in such a way that is _should_ open a new tab. I'm not using HTML `` at all in this code.

I use Edge (NOT Edge chromium yet) When I click on the link, the domain management page opens in the same tab (replaces the queries page). I use a wheel mouse. I normally open a link using a wheel click, which always opens the link in a new tab, but that doesn't work in the pihole web interface.
Also tested with firefox. The wheel click also doesn't work, but a normal click DOES open the domain management page in a new tab, so t **he behavior is browser dependent**.

Okay, so this is something we cannot/should not do much about. The events are standard DataTables events and if Edge decides to handle them differently than the majority of other browsers, then we should wait for either DataTables or (rather!) the browser maintainer to fix this misbehavior.

Well, if it is `and` or `or` doesn't really matter, it depends on your point of view:
- `and`: They all offer this feature
- `or`: You can click on any one of them

Hmm, the link icon is a bit distracting in my view, how about underlining the text to symbolize it has a special meaning?

No, `file://` is the "protocol". In your example,
> [@anon55913113](#):
>

two things are connected `file://` _and_ `/home/pi/blocklist.txt`. You see that the third slash belongs to the path and not the protocol of the address so `file:/` is indeed correct.

**I agree** , furthermore, if you are going to change this, you'll need to change this in a lot of places (all entries that have an underlying link), otherwise, You'll be deviating from the **overall more uniform experience** , that has been achieved with the latest update.

I'm using local (filesystem) lists myself, I've never seen this message, using the syntax (example) file:///home/pi/BL/tracker/domains

@anon55913113 Does `pihole -q local` give any result? I agree with @jpgpi250 not having seen this before.

We're slowly getting there...now with an underlined link. Users should be familiar enough with the web that underlined text _usually_ means "click me".

I guess there is no real way of doing it right with the regex link, the current way of doing it seems unobtrusive and highlights that there is something special about this text. We can leave it like this and see if users complain IMHO.

So these two dots really show up in there? I assume you put them in, just asking to be sure. You should better put something more obvious such as `` in there to clearly highlight that this is human-made.
