Hugo: Can't render a mobile friendly tel: number used in url in config.toml

Created on 27 Feb 2019 · 3Comments · Source: gohugoio/hugo

I am attempting to link a mobile friendly phone number following the standard:

In my config.toml, I have:

    [[languages.en.menu.secondary]]
    identifier = "talktous"
    name = "Talk To Us"
    url = "tel:+14151112222"
    weight = 120

Oddly, this renders as:

http://localhost:1313/embeddedsystems/#ZgotmplZ

(note: the ZgotmplZ)

I'm sure I'm rending some template thing the wrong way, but mailto: just works fine, so I though tel: would work. Ideas?

So not a bug, but a feature of safeURL. Not obvious, but it is stated that anything not matching http/https/mailto urls will get the funny ZgotmplZ URL.

Here is a reference: https://gohugo.io/functions/safeurl/#prose

Glad this is here because it should now show up in search results.
