Feature: #90336 - CKEditor Autolinking uses https by default
See forge#90336
Description
TYPO3 ships with a CKEditor plugin called "autolinking", which automatically converts typed text within a RTE to an external URL.
When typing www.
this is automatically converted to
an absolute external link, which previously used http://
as
schema.
Nowadays, over 90% of the web is served via the https protocol and secure connections via SSL/TLS, where it is safe to use secure-by-default links.
When not specifically using a schema as prefix for an autolinking
URL, CKEditor now uses https
instead of http
as schema by default.
Impact
When typing a URL like www.typo3.org in the RTE and the autolinking
plugin is activated, the default schema used is now https
instead
of http
for any new links.
However, it is - as before - fully possible to manually change a
link to use the http://
schema instead.
