How to add "http" in web address

When people include their name, email address, and web site, I don't think any of them ever add "http://" in the web site. As a result, the link ends up being "http://www.tedmiller.com/www.examplewebsite.com."

How can I add the http automatically?

Hi Ted,

Are you talking about in the event notes? Is this using the default HTML editor that comes with Thyme?

I'm referring to the field just before the event Notes. Just before adding details of their event, there are fields for the submitter's name, email address, then URL.

Hi Ted,

This should already be done. I'm sorry, I can't remember if you've customized Thyme. Maybe you have and so have not updated class.event.php. Here are the lines that should go after

I'm sheepishly starting to think there's some user error here. I was looking for an example to show you what happens... and I couldn't find one. Granted, I've edited a lot of the submissions to add HTTP, but not all of them.

I'm running into the "www.tedmiller.com/submittedwebsite.com" issue while checking and editing submissions.

I think I'm seeing that Thyme adds the HTTP:// is added AFTER the event is approved and appears live on the calendar. Is this correct? So I'm wasting my time adding "http://" to those submissions?

Ah yes.. that is not in the requests, but will be added once approved. So you should not have to do that.
