External Links don't show

+1 for supporting external links.

@picxelplay -- I have a goofy, insecure workaround. Use it if you like. It requires the URL Redirect module, which I happened to have already.

Create a node that does nothing but serve as a starting point for a redirect. Then configure a redirect from there to the external page. Finally, create the shortcut to your starting-point node.

Note: it appears that a shortcut to an unpublished node doesn't display on the shortcut bar, so you have to publish the node for this to work.

HTH

Attached patch proves that it works.

Thanks for reporting, reviewing, and testing! Committed to all branches.

A new development snapshot will be available within the next 12 hours. This improvement will be available in the next official release.

Oh, maybe I misunderstood the original post. I thought it was asking for the ability to add a *shortcut* linking to an external URL, and that's what my workaround does. I'll create a different issue. Thanks!
