Show URLs only in parts (url shorten) in posts

[Thomas P]

Hi fellows,

is there a function in IPB to show URLs only in parts (url shorten) in posts?

I mean like this: http://www.example.org/mysample/thisisa...

Thanks,

Did you shorten it by yourself?

Please enlighten me how to configure this to be automatically done by IPB

Use the Link button

You can always add a bit of jQuery to do it:

$('a').text(function(index, oldText) {
    return oldText.length > 50 ? oldText.substring(0, 50) + '...' : oldText;
});
