 * Hi,
 * Ive specified a custom field in my post body here [http://festivalnet.co.uk/teas-and-tarts/](http://festivalnet.co.uk/teas-and-tarts/)
   called ‘Website’ the user enters their URL via a contact form on the upload listings
   page here [http://festivalnet.co.uk/upload-a-listing/](http://festivalnet.co.uk/upload-a-listing/)
 * this is how i call it into the body
 *     ```
       <span class="about-us">Website</span> <br />
                               <?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, 'website',true) ?><br /
       ```
   
 * Is there anyway i can make the URL a hyperlink when its displayed in the post
   body?
 * Many Thanks
    Al
