I read somewhere on this forum that since version 1.1.0 the inclusion of magnet was introduced. However I simply cannot get this to work.
i tried editing the about:config in firefox and added
Code: Select all
string name: network.protocol-handler.app.magnet
string value: /usr/local/bin/deluge
enter name: network.protocol-handler.external.magnet
enter value: yes
So am i missing something or is it not supported?

I have the same problem with the SVN version (currently rc5 in progress).
Magnet links work fine in the gtk version, not that it helps me much

I got magnet links working in firefox like this:
- about:config
- Right-click -> New -> Boolean -> Name: network.protocol-handler.expose.magnet -> Value -> false
- Restart FireFox
- Click a magnet link
- The association dialog will pop up. Associate it with deluge-gtk.
