Auto hyperlinking of images and web sites should now be working fine for secure web links. Previously, this code only worked for web links of "http://". Now it works for that as well as "https://" (with the "s" after "http").
The "s" stands for secure, which means the data at such links is transmitted in encrypted form instead of in freely readable format. That means that all the computers between your PC and the web server through which the data travels cannot understand the information that is there, which is not the case with the basic "http:" format, which is unencrypted and can be read by anyone or any government in control of intermediary computers.
But the "Preview w/Auto Link" button should now be automatically creating the hyperlinks for any and all web addresses in a post.
Please let me know on this thread of any difficulties. Thanks.
