Bug: DOI links are broken in HTML exports

Bug: DOI links are broken in HTML exports

Hi,

I've found a small bug in org-html-export-to-html. Minimal document to reproduce:

---

Foo [fn:1]

* Footnotes

[fn:1] doi:10.1186/s12864-016-2377-z

---

When I export this document to HTML the DOI link gets converted into a broken hyperlink. It should be converted into https://doi.org/10.1186/s12864-016-2377-z as explained in https://www.doi.org/. <https://www.doi.org/>

Following the link from the org file with C-c C-o works fine, though.

It'd be great if this could get fixed, as DOI links are incredibly helpful when dealing with bibliographic items.

Thanks

Do you use a link abbreviation for doi: links ?

If you use a link abbreviation.

What version of Emacs and Org are you using?

I'm not using a link abbreviation for doi: links.

I can reproduce this bug running a stock Emacs (27.1) and stock Org (9.4-elpa) i.e., no init file.

I encountered this bug for the first time a few months ago, when I first used doi: links.

I hope this helps.

AFAICT Org never implemented export for DOI links. It just provides
a way to follow them, as you observed already.

I added a rough export for doi links in master. I hope this fixes your
issue.
