Clickable text - Sᴛʏʟɪɴɢ - May 28, 2016
Hey guys, I'll be really grateful if anyone can help me.
I want an addon that makes clickable, choosable text. Is there such a thing?
I want to be able to click steam: links in a shoutbox. So far haven't had anything work.
For example, someone posts a steam://etcetcetc, I want to be able to click it and have it open up, instead of manually copying it into the address bar.
Thanks!

Does the job, i've used various but this is best, i can't vouch if it works for steam links because i never tried but it works good for the rest.

I just need a plugin that lets you set a prefix of something..
Say I want it to detect that everything after steam: will be clickable.
Sorry but what you linked me didnt work

Edit: Ah, gotcha. Hold on.
Edit #2: In the event that this requirement is private, feel free to PM me, but what website are you referring to? This way, I can test it before giving you a suggestion.
I'm the king of productivity and laziness, I should be able to get something working.

Alright, bumping this up. The application I need this for is simple. Say someone posts a link that looks like this
steam://124314
steam links are naturally un-clickable. I want something that lets me set a prefix that everything that has the word "steam://" in it will be clickable. I tried a few addons but none worked the way I wanted to. Could anyone maybe bodge anything up?
