Exclude text already within a link? Or Within the output of a shortcode?

    I have a plugin which creates Click To Tweet boxes on the front end of posts and pages. A user is having trouble with our two plugins working together, if a keyword is in the tweetable quote. Is there a way to prevent your plugin from attempting to hyperlink a keyword that is already in the midst of a hyperlink? That would seem to be the simplest way.

    Alternatively, preventing hyperlinks from within the output of a shortcode would work.

    Let me know! I’d love for the user to be able to use both plugins!

    I am the user using both plugins! BTW, I like both plugins very much and do highly recommend them.

    About the problem I have: for me it would also help if the internal linking plugin doesn’t create links to posts that contain the keyword itself.

    I have created a post about hosting. And I have set up internal linking to link all occurrences of the word hosting to this post. The result is that also the words hosting in the article itself become links to the article. And also the tweets about hosting in the article.

    So an option to disable links to articles itself would be very helpful.

    Is this possible?

    Thanks!
