What is a correct URL? This is really hard to find out. F.e. I went to <a href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tile_servers">http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tile_servers</a> and tried to copy some URLs and failed about finding the correct syntax. I added the layer to the project --> nothing happened. No display, no error message.

Can we add some popular tile map server URLs by default - similar to the QuickMapServices plugin?<o:p></o:p></span></p><p><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"'>4. How can one edit an existing tile server connection - e.b. change title or URL?
