When URLs are listed in a views table, they are not listed as hyperlinks. I have listed Users and their personal websites, but I cannot figure out how to turn them into hyperlinks without writing a views template. Is there something I can do about this? I thought all URLs were converted to hyperlinks since Drupal 5.0.
Thanks,
Seth

URLs are not automatically converted to hyperlinks in Drupal 5 in all places; they are if you go through the standard input filter, but a single field from a profile does not necessarily do that.

It's not clear to me where the source of your data comes from -- is it just a profile text field? Or is it a CCK field of some sort?

The field is a URL field added on the following link:
Home › Administer › User management › Profile

Ideally, it would be nice to combine it with custom links http://drupal.org/project/custom_links or have some similar built in feature.
Thank you for your help,
Seth

Sorry, unfortunately this support request is way too specific. Please have a look at the issue queue - Views maintainers are buried already. You might want to try to get further support at http://drupal.org/support.
If you were able to solve this issue on your own in the meantime, you might want to add the involved steps to this closed issue, so other users searching for a similar solution might find it.

Dirty hack (for Drupal-6.12) :
Copy views-view-field.tpl.php to yourtheme/views-view-field--yourview--yourfield.tpl.php and change
print output;
for
print filter_filter('process',2,-1,$output);

It works for me. See "linklog" block in http://jotarp.org. It's a view of delicious module.
