hyperlinks in irc topic? reddit / irc ---------------------------------------------------------------------- officialwitness · 2017-03-30 13:01 For example in html? Visit our friendshere Is there a solution to use links in the topic for irc which is similar? Best regards, ---------------------------------------------------------------------- MuffinMedic · 2017-03-30 15:00 No. The topic is interpreted as plain text. Some clients will render URLs as clickable links, but there is no settable control of this from the operator side. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Madbrad200 · 2017-03-30 17:18 If you're running into size issues, use a respectable link shorterner (like goo.gl) and just use that. You get the added benifit of having some click stats. Or just put it in the entry message (`/chanserv entrymsg #channel add Messagehere`). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- dagreatnate1 · 2017-03-31 05:48 Why would you need it in the topic? Some IRC Services allow you to set a channel homepage ---------------------------------------------------------------------- officialwitness · 2017-03-31 22:51 Link to certain partners or for this matter, streamers that play the game the channel is about. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ircpuzzles · 2017-04-03 13:45 Some IRC networks have a "URL" property for their channel properties, ie: freenode. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Madbrad200 · 2017-04-03 14:18 `irc://network:port/channel` Like that? Don't think that's what they're asking for. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ircpuzzles · 2017-04-03 14:19 No, on freenode you can do: `/msg ChanServ SET #chat URL http://slashdot.org` ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Madbrad200 · 2017-04-03 14:21 Ahh yeah forgot about that. That requires people to use `/chanserv info #chat` to see it right? /u/officialwitness ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ircpuzzles · 2017-04-03 14:46 Sort of? On freenode when you join a channel with that property set you will be presented with it either in-channel or where the ENTRYMSG would show up in your IRC client. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Madbrad200 · 2017-04-03 15:45 Gotcha, TIL. Doesn't work like that in Networks I frequent.
