| Description | I noticed that one of my members on lovinity.org made a post in a forum that contained a link. I found it odd, however, how the system parsed the link. Instead of making it an actual link, like it does for me... it made it a box with a view button. There is no special html in the post... just the URL itself.
Is it supposed to do this? |

It actually works a lot better if you force the hyperlink media renderer, as that uses the OpenGraph description...
[media type="hyperlink"]http://unitedmediapublishing.com/first-tampon-for-transgender-women-to-hit-shelves-next-month/[/media]
If you just want a URL you need to explicitly do...
[url]http://unitedmediapublishing.com/first-tampon-for-transgender-women-to-hit-shelves-next-month/[/url]
or set it as an <a> in WYSIWYG.
