Wraps URLs with angle brackets (<https://example.com>) when pasting into discord to avoid link embeds

📜 Installation

  • Install Tampermonkey from the Chrome Web Store (or Firefox Add-ons)
  • After this, you have two options (only do one of these):
    • GreasyFork (recommended): Go to the GreasyFork page and click the green "Install this script" button. This will take you to a page on Tampermonkey where you need to click "Install" to install the script.
    • GitHub/Manual install (not recommended): Go to the raw script page. Tampermonkey will automatically detect this file as a userscript (since the file is named *.user.js), so click the "Install" button to install it. If it doesn't, copy the entire contents of the script into the Tampermonkey script editor (make sure you save).
    • If none of these work, look up how to install a Tampermonkey userscript.

🚫 Uninstallation

If you don't want to use this script anymore, you can uninstall it anytime.

  • Navigate to the Tampermonkey dashboard (click the extension icon in the top right, then click "Dashboard" at the bottom of the popup)
  • Click the trashcan on the right side of the page

⚙ Config:

There are a few settings you can configure:

const CONFIG = {
  replaceStandaloneLinks: true, // will affect "https://stackoverflow.com", but not "check out https://stackoverflow.com"; can be true or false; default: true
  replaceLinksInMessage: true, // will affect "check out https://stackoverflow.com", but not "https://stackoverflow.com"; can be true or false; default: true
  linkRegexProvider: "discord", // discord doesn't parse links perfectly on the frontend; can be "discord" or "custom"; default: "discord"
  ignoreCaseInLink: true, // discord doesn't treat HTTPS as a valid link, unless you wrap in <>; can be false or true; default true
};

Note that "replaceStandaloneLinks" and "replaceLinksInMessage" are not mutually exclusive. When both are true (the default setting), links will be affected regardless of if they're the entire clipboard or inside of the clipboard.

To turn off one or both of these, replace true with false.

📝 Note:
  • Changes are only re-evaluated when discord is completely refreshed
  • Configuration will be lost on update, if you have any ideas for how to persist this configuration, please let me know in the Issues tab.

🐛 Bugs:

Please file bugs under the Issues tab.

🤔 Known Oddities:

  • When pasting a link surrounded by some characters, the angle brackets won't be visible, but they're still there and prevent the embed.
  • When pasting a message with a link already surrounded by angle brackets, more angle brackets will be added, resulting in the same visual as the source paste except the link will not be hyperlinked or embedded.
