 * First off, great plugin. I was going to use [timejump.js](https://github.com/davatron5000/timejump)
   but it’s nice to have this in the form of a plugin. I really like the option 
   that automatically creates links so I don’t have to train my authors on how to
   remember the shortcode. However is it possible to remove the auto link ability
   if there isn’t a player present on the page? This way someone could say 11:00
   for the time of day and not have it link if there isn’t an audio/video player
   present.
 * Thanks!

 * Thanks for the feedback, and the request. I’ve started working on a new release
   and will try and include this.

 * Well, I knocked it out a bit faster than I expected when I wrote that comment.
 * I just cut a new release (version 1.2) with that feature. Posts and pages now
   have a metabox that’ll let you disable any autolinks on that post/page.

 * Thanks! I was hoping for something more automated like _“if there isn’t an audio/
   video on the page…then time formatted text doesn’t produce a link”_ sort of thing,
   but the meta box works too. I know nothing of writing plugins but I know there’s
   an “if shortcode” and perhaps there’s a way to check for audio or video in the
   same matter. Just a thought.
 * Thanks for the improvement either way though!
