The URLfilter module automatically converts text web addresses (URLs, e-mail addresses, ftp links, etc.) into hyperlinks. This is useful for users if content authors do not explicitly create a hyperlink for the URL.

This functionality was added into 5.0 core as a filter so the module will no longer be needed for future versions

Use Input Formats to enable the URL filter.

1. Select an existing input format or add a new one
2. Configure the input format
3. Enable URL filter and Save configuration
4. Rearrange the weight of the URL filter depending on what filters exist in the format

You can:

• enable the URL filter in an input format from administer >> Input Filter.
• file issues, read about known bugs, and download the latest version on the URL filter project page.
