Teleport Issue

[sassywheelz]

I had my laptop repaired and after getting him back it seems that my firestorm settings are a bit different. When I'm trying to teleport from a website by clicking on Visit this location, it doesn't automatically open in my Firestorm. Is there something I can do in my settings to change?

I added a screenshot of what I'm talking about. 

Listen to me any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,

perhaps you had multiple viewers installed, and Firestorm isn't set as default handler for slurl

 

Run the Installer again (no need to uninstall). You will see a prompt: “Do you want to register Firestorm as default handler for virtual world protocols?” Clicking Yes will set the viewer to open map slurls from the web.

 

(firestormviewer.org) Clicking on a SLURL Doesn't Activate the Viewer

Sometimes a Windows update can cause it to forget Firestorm is supposed to be the default application for SLURLs.  Try Marcov's method. Or, if you have several viewers installed and want to be able to easily switch between them, install a little app called SLURL Proxy. See this link: https://wiki.firestormviewer.org/slurl

It's actually easier than all that. If you are trying to teleport to a destination from the map UI on your web browser, it won;t work unless you have taught your browser what to do with the peculiar version of a URL that we refer to as a SLURL. There's a handy add-on that you can install to do that.  Find it at https://downloads.firestormviewer.org/SLURLProxy.zip  .  I suspect that you had it installed before, but it was deleted when you did the repair work on your laptop.

Oh, duh.  Lindal already said that.  ^^

To @marcov Carter, @Lindal Kidd, and  @Rolig Loon thank you so much for your help and knowledge. The download Proxy SLURL helped. Now to set my default location as my home on SL.
