If you do not have a choice to change the field type, then use a scripted field which based on the value of this field. See an example at https://answers.atlassian.com/questions/122106/difference-between-epic-theme-fields-and-new-epic-functionality

It is not possible. An option is to modify the templates but you will have to add conditions to check specific custom fields or restrict it to selected projects. A more elegant approach will be to write a new custom field type.

URL field will work but the link should be a valid url.
