The Amazing make_clickable() WordPress Function!
Have you ever had a WordPress custom field that might have a url in it? For years, I have been toiling with crazy regular expressions and javascript hacks to dynamically add links to custom field text.
Well, no longer!
Today, I discovered the make_clickable() WordPress function.
This simple, little function finds text urls and converts them into hyperlinks, like so:
make_clickable(get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'key_1', true ));
Pretty cool, eh?
