This plugin automatically creates links for URLs, email addresses, @mentions, and #hashtags in embedded tweets.
- Rewrites links in plaintext tweets as appropriate links.
Include the plugin in your page:
<script src="jquery.twitter.autolink.js"></script>
Call the twitter_autolink() function on any element containing a tweet.
$(<tweet_el>).twitter_autolink();
Consider the following element on your page:
<p class="tweet">Check out this cool new stock video site: dissolve.com. #video #4k /cc @dissolve</p>
Use the plugin on this element:
$(".tweet").twitter_autolink();
And the element will be rewritten like this (note that %23 is the URL-encoded representation of #):
<p class="tweet">Check out this cool new stock video site: <a href="http://dissolve.com">dissolve.com</a>. <a href="http://twitter.com/search/%23video">#video</a> <a href="http://twitter.com/search/%234k">#4k</a> /cc <a href="http://twitter.com/dissolve">@dissolve</a></p>
