Bug 492399

SUMMARY
Only http:// without S will allow the add Webseed button to enable, so it can be clicked. But nowadays, you won't find http only sources anymore. Usually the downloads are https:// same as the rest of the web.

Force-adding a link by editing the s out form the URL seems not to work, as the resulting webseed is stuck in "resolving host".

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. start any Ubuntu torrent from: e.g. https://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/releases/noble/release/
2. Copy the direct download URL of the ISO with https://
3. Paste into webseed field (Button disabled)
4. edit into http:// (Button enabled)
5. click add (won't download anything from there)

OBSERVED RESULT
Cannot click "Add Webseed"-button or stuck in "resolving host"

EXPECTED RESULT
Download from https://
