The following information would be useful:
- What version of Geany are you using? - What operation system and version are you using? - How have you mounted the remote file systems? - What happens when you try to open the file specifically? (ex. error messages, debug messages, etc) - Have you seen sf.net [bug #1043](http://sourceforge.net/p/geany/bugs/1043/)?

The ability of Geany to open files has not changed. What has most likely changed is that your system is not auto-mounting them locally any more.

I guess one should not implement a file system driver (ssh, sftp, ftp, nfs, smb etc) in a text editor. That is an OS or desktop environment functionality.
BTW, in File / Open I can write ssh://... and it works fine (gvfs does it, I think).

Yes, note that pluma is really a part of the DE and is tightly integrated and uses the Gnome Virtual File System to read and write. But being portable Geany is not so tightly integrated.

@derba I just noticed that the add-ons plugin has an "Add Open URI item in edit menu", not sure if that will do anything for you?

This seems related to:
https://github.com/geany/geany/issues/1437
Geany 1.30.1 on GNOME 3.22.3 (using it on Fedora 25).
Up to this last update, editing files on sftp mounts done with nautilus was working perfectly. For years.
Right now, opening a file mounts via sftp in nautilus: geany shows the file as if it had no content at all, and if "save" is invoked it will overwrite the original file, all the contents are lost, people can easily lose code due to this problem - even worse: this can haven with auto-save as well. Please take a look
