Markdown plugin: make web links clickable automatically

1

Hi, I have TW 5.2.7 on Tiddlyhost. I use the Markdown 5.3.0 plugin sometimes. Right now the Markdown plugin does make WWW links clickable by default and I have to put dozens of links in <> (angle brackets).

Can we get an option in the markdown plugin to automatically convert links to clickable? If it begins with “http://” or “https://” then the ideas is to make it clickable. Also make “mailto:someone@somewhere.com” links clickable.

Thanks!

If you set linkify to true in the plugin configuration, links will highlight automatically (http, https and mailto). To change it, open the $:/config/markdown/linkify tiddler and change the text to true.

Sorry I have to edit this. This is what worked.

  1. When I go to the Plugin Contents tab, I see shadow tiddlers as live links like $:/config/markdown/linkify when I click on it that shadow tiddler opens, I go into edit mode for that tiddler, and I changed the text to true.
  2. I saved the change in the tiddler.
  3. I saved the changes to the whole TW then reloaded the TW.

It works! Thanks.
