Hi,
There is a AutoLink plugin for CKEditor 5 and it looks like it's missing in Drupal.
Please check out the demo page: https://ckeditor.com/docs/ckeditor5/latest/features/link.html#autolink-f... - does it meet your needs? - 🇫🇮Finland anaconda777
Hi,
Autolink plugin is not what I am looking, but auto embedding where you put a URL from Youtube or any social media site for example and it shows the post image and title in the editor. Like this:
https://ckeditor.com/docs/ckeditor4/latest/examples/mediaembed.html#auto...But it looks like that is for ckeditor4.

Yes, that one is for CKEditor 4
CKEditor 5 also has something similar: https://ckeditor.com/docs/ckeditor5/latest/features/media-embed.html
We didn't thought abut that so far as Drupal has own Media system with option for external sources. Hower I can imagine that someone would prefer simple "copy a link" embedding method.
We'll take a loot at this plugin's integration. I cannot provide any ETA at this moment though. - 🇫🇮Finland anaconda777
Hi, yes that ckeditor5 version https://ckeditor.com/docs/ckeditor5/latest/features/media-embed.html
looks exactly the one needed. The goal is to just paste the link to the editor, similarly as in some social media platforms. - 🇵🇱Poland salmonek
We have released the autoembed submodule in version 1.4.1
I'm sorry for not sharing the MR here before, I'll marks the ticket as Needs Review for now (it was approved by our QA team)
The plugin works with Youtube, Vimeo, Dailymotion and Spotify - for those sites CKEditor can create a code that browsers can render out of the box.
The other sites embeds can be displayed only as<oembed>
element that requires some third party scripts. I didn't find a drupal module that could handle this. If there would be something, we could add the configuration form in the text format settings to allow other sources.Please try new module and share your opinion.
