in reply to Super search use DuckDuckGo link broken

It appears that typing ddg://anything in the search box sends you to The Monastery Gates. I'm not sure if that's the problem the base note is complaining about.

    You can no longer use the search box to redirect off site. This was a security fix.

    It still works in posts, however ddg://Perl, for example.

    And in-site links should still work, even in the search box. id://381608, for example.

      If you still need to find out how a link will be translated by PerlMonks, you can use handlelinks xml generator with the link query parameter containing the shortcut.

      map{substr$_->[0],$_->[1]||0,1}[\*||{},3],[[]],[ref qr-1,-,-1],[{}],[sub{}^*ARGV,3]
