Did those placeholders ever work through org-protocol?

How exactly where they meant to work?

Did you convert your remember-templates before testing?
Or did you just copy/rename your `org-remeber-templates' variable to
`org-capture-templates'?


In the new variable `org-capture-templates', these placeholders are not
guarantied to work (at least not documented).

Use
   %c - this will be a link to the page in your browser
   %i - this will be the selected text in your browser, if any. This is,
        what `%:initial' was I guess.
   %a - same as %c


Does that work for you?
