#18469 closed defect (bug) (invalid)

esc_url prevents embedding tel: links in custom menus

Description

When adding a tel: URL to a custom menu via custom links the URL is removed by esc_url as it is not a whitelisted protocol. (line 2267 in wp-includes/formatting.php).

I also noticed git: wasn't included in the whitelist array so I added it for good measure.

Should we not add all of the valid protocols then? ​http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/URI_scheme

Uh, we're missing a few important/interesting protocols, such as "skype:"...I think Joachim's link should be useful...

uuf6429, can you open a new ticket please?

Also, #18268 was the main ticket which adds a filter where you can hook into to add additional protocols.
