How to add clickable URLs in comments

[Spandana P]

Hello ,

We have this comments field which is of Journal input type on form, with this field we communicate with end users, Currently this field is not useful to send clickable links, just the text could be sent but sometimes we would need to send the end users Links/URLs which are clickable.

 How to achieve this with out the need to create a new field for URLs as we are not supposed to create any new fields due to license issues?

Thanks,

Spandana.

Hi,

you need to wrap the html tag within [code][/code]

Example

current.comments = [code]<a href="https://google.com" target="_blank">Google</a>[/code];

Hi @Ankur Bawiskar and @Aman Kumar ,

I'm sorry if this is noob, but we are not adding links embedded in code, we do it randomly just when we need to communicate with them, so my question here is do we need to wrap the html tag within [code][/code] everytime we randomly send links?

or is there any way I can do it like if in my comments contains 'https://' or 'www' or '.com'  etc, then it gets appended with these tags?

Hi,

you can write that logic to check if comments contains https:// or www etc

But that would be a tedious task
