how do I make it so that urls are automatically created as a link? e.g. http://www.getvanilla.com <-- not a link, but is there an extension which makes it a link?
well I already tried it and it doesn't work.
It just seems strange to install the html formatter extension when you don't really need the "html" part of it.
Furthermore, an average user could get confused thinking that they need to enable the html option to have links in their post.
I'm confused, selecting "text" format and typing a link (http://google.com) <-- gives a link!? Hmm..that seems odd. Convenient, I suppose, but odd.
Presumably, if you select "Html" you know how to create a link using HTML.
Convenient indeed.
But inconvenient from a usability POV, i.e. "text" would imply text only, as is the case for emails.
Anyhow, the extension is definitely useful in its own right.
Guys - that autolinking and the / me function is part of the Extended Text Formatter, not the base text formatter that comes with vanilla. Though this discussion isnt really the place for this discussion.
The new version seems to break the formatting?
I keep getting these errors?
