Per default I do connect to irc.freenode.net to 4 channels of #gentoo.xyz after starting KOnversation. If I click then in firefox onto a link like #cppcheck then KOnversation doesn't use the existing server connection (and therefore my already registered user name over SSL). Instead it opens a new tap to the same server and then ofc failed to use my preferred username. Reproducible: Always Expected Results: should re-use existings server.
Konversation already does this when it can determine that the host is related to a network that a connection is open to. Most likely the links you are clicking use the correct chat.freenode.net host, and you don't have that added to your Freenode network in the Server List dialog.
Hhm, I had chat.freenode.net with port 7000 defined, the link at page http://cppcheck.sourceforge.net/ points to irc://irc.freenode.net/. I added irc.freenode.net to the server list (with port 7000 and SSL endabled). If I click now at the link, then the Konversation window will be brought onto top of all windows but nothing else happens. If I close Konversation and click onto the link, then Konversation will be started and I'm logged in with my registered nickname into the predefined channels, but not in addition into the channel #cppcheck. I activated debug messages but nothing suspicious was logged.
FWIW I'm running KDE 4.11.9+4.13.1
Could you please open your konversationrc file, and copy the following things from it to the bug ticket: - The [ServerGroup #] group for Freenode and all of its key-value pairs. - The [Server #] groups referenced by the above, and all of their key-value pairs. Please take care to remove possible passwords first, in Password= or ConnectCommands= keys.

The link on http://cppcheck.sourceforge.net/ to #cppheck is <a href="irc:// irc.freenode.net/">#cppcheck</a>. If this is the link you are testing with, it will never join the channel.

Thanks Eli :) FWIW, the correct URL would be irc://chat.freenode.net/cppcheck
(In reply to comment #8) > Thanks Eli :) > > FWIW, the correct URL would be irc://chat.freenode.net/cppcheck yep, I already complaint about that in #cppcheck - the issue will be corrected at the page Again, sry for the noise.
No worries.
