About

WordPress has an excellent feature, where pasting a URL onto selected text will automatically transform that text into a link.

Now you can do it everywhere!

This supports HTML, Markdown, BBcode, Remarkup, and Trac-style links. On most sites, it will create HTML links, unless it's listed here:

Markdown

- github.com
- teuxdeux.com

Software
---------

- Trac
- phpBB
- vBulletin
- Phabricator

If you'd like a new link style or new site exception added, please post it here: https://github.com/pento/linkify/issues
