I have 2 different WordPress sites on the same server. Both of them contain links to files on our internal network, which are linked using the file://
protocol.
Here is the problem: On one of the sites the file://
links work fine in Internet Explorer; I click the link and the folder location opens in a new window. However, on the other site when I click the file://
links, absolutely nothing happens. What can I do to make this work on both sites?
The site with the working file links is using WordPress version 3.2.1
The site with the non-working file links is using version 3.5.1
Here is an example file://
link that I am having this issue with:
file://servername/sharefolder$/sub1/sub2/sub3
