Insert Hyperlink Behavior: Highlight URL Instead of Title Text

Sharon Connell January 22, 2018

I have users that have asked for the URL be highlighted instead of the title text. Is this possible? 

[link title|http://example.com]

Hi Sharon,

When you save your link does it look like this:

[link title|http://example.com]

or does it just show the link like this:

http://example.com

If it's showing [link title|http://example.com] after you save it we're going to need to look at your rendering as it should save and the only text that should be showing is link title as a hyperlink.

If the objective is to get it to show the link title in blue prior to the save you would need to create a Suggestion request for this on JAC.  If you do so please post the link in this thread so the rest of the Community can vote on it and add impact.

Cheers,

Branden

Thanks, Branden!

I know this seems petty, but it is a pain point for a couple of teams. It renders correctly so I will create a request.

No worries Sharon.

When you do create the ticket please post the link here and the Community can vote on the behavior.  It may be something that others have thought about and just haven't brought up for whatever reason.

Cheers,

Branden
