Project is unknown in Profile/URL field of questions

Question

I tried to add https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Project:Norway to the field directly below but was defeated. Is this a feature or a bug?

Comments

That field requires a profile or a freespace page. I don't believe project pages are allowed there.  I could be wrong about that. P

You could be right! I just tried a project link(without prefix) and it failed also!

A recent update to the G2G software eliminated our ability to copy/paste directly into this edit box, Judy.

See this thread for more information:

I used the keyboard shortcut Ctrl key plus V key to paste the link text above. Then I used the formatting icon for hyperlinks to turn the text into a working link. Some browsers may also have shortcut access in a drop-down menu.

If you are using a mobile device, you may not be able to use the shortcut.

Let us know if this method works for you or if you need additional assistance with this problem.

Using Ctrl-V to paste this link into field still fails!
