URL filter: turn URLs and e-mail addresses into live links
Last modified: November 29, 2009 - 03:21
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.
- Select an existing input format or add a new one
- Configure the input format
- Enable URL filter and Save configuration
- 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.
