Prblems with Torrent Search plugin

Post by kosak »

Good day too all!

I have the problem that when I insert into the query of "http://www.mininova.org/search/?search=${query}" (without quotes), It opens Swiftfox like this:

file:///home/kosak/%22http://www.mininova.org/search/?search=the+simpsons

When I delete the "file:///home/kosak/%22" from the browser it works fine.

Any ideas on how to fix this and have Deluge take me to the correct url?

Thanks for the time,

markybob thanks for post, but I still have the same problem.

I followed the instructions of the post (http://forum.deluge-torrent.org/viewtop ... owser#p528) which were really easy. As instructed, I went to Settings > Preferred Application, from the pull down menu I chose my default, which is swiftfox. From it, I selected /usr/bin/swiftfox and took the the "%s" from it, but still they were there after issuing the cmd so I though it might be permissions, therefore I granted write permission to that folder recursively. Still there. Then after re-reading the prompt from the cmd mentioned in the post

gconftool-2 --get /desktop/gnome/url-handlers/http/command

I got,

kosak@kosak-laptop:/usr/lib$ gconftool-2 --get /desktop/gnome/url-handlers/http/command
/usr/lib/swiftfox/firefox "%s"


Then i went and selected /usr/lib/swiftfox/firefox "%s" and removed the double quotes, but still there.

Honestly I've tried several things, but still /usr/lib/swiftfox/firefox "%s" is there.

Thanks again,

ps: I like the bold feature :D
