Automatically create link when including an AHK docs topic in forum post

[WeThotUWasAToad]

Hello,

It seems like in past AutoHotkey forum threads, a link would automatically be created when a topic from the docs was included in a forum post. For example, if WinActive() was included, it automatically appeared as a link to:

https://autohotkey.com/docs/commands/WinActive.htm.

Am I right about that or was I hallucinating? Is there a forum setting that will cause that to occur so the docs URL does not have to be retrieved and attached manually (ie by using the <url=http://url>URL text</url> format)?

Thanks

interesting some a feature.

i think something is good a client side. for e.g. with a autohotkey script.
some comands have noe own URL. so its not so eady to match comands.
we need first a matching array. proably parse the docs first. or weekly or so. then generate such a script from it.
interesting idea.

Automatic links to the docs are (usually) only generated in code boxes... which is currently broken .

To create such links in normal text, use the [docs] and [/docs] tags, for example:

[docs] WinExist()[/docs] <--- creates the link WinExist(), if you remove the space before WinExist(); it won't work with directives, afaik, but you could still use [url] tags for them.

You can also find a button to insert these tags, if you use "Full Editor and Preview" view for your posts.
