Suggestion: Hyperlinkable ingredients

    I just got done installing and setting up this plugin on a client website. One suggestion I have is to allow hyperlinks within the ingredient list. As of now, the only option is to create Recommended Products at the bottom of the recipe, which is a step in the right direction and a nice secondary way to bring attention to products for sale. However a more useful primary way to hyperlink to products would be to make the actual ingredients clickable too.

    Great work on the plugin so far and just wanted to offer this suggestion. Thank you.

    Hi @pauldrecksler

    I have good news for you. That feature already exists in Create!

    There are a few ways you can add links to ingredients. The first is by toggling the the Detail editor for ingredients. When you expand an ingredient open, it has a place to add a link to it.

    Alternately, you can use markdown in the bulk editor, by wrapping the ingredient in square brackets and then adding the url after in parentheses. So it would look like [Ingredient](url).

    If you need any more help, please reach out to us at create@mediavine.com.

    @mediavine thanks very much for the prompt reply and letting me know. I must have missed that in your documentation. I had attempted to use a standard A HREF link in the bulk editing of the ingredients, and it was stripped away after I hit publish, which is why I assumed it was not possible. I see now that it’s possible with your markup thanks to your reply. I just tested it and see that the link is nofollow and opens in a new tab by default which is what I needed — great work. Thanks for the clarification.
