Auto Link Field Formatter
This module adds a formatter to Drupal's Layout Builder that automatically turns URLs in plain text fields into clickable links. You can configure these links to open in a new tab and the module preserves new lines.
Auto Link Formatter for Drupal Layout Builder
This module provides a Field Formatter for the core Drupal Layout Builder,
allowing plain text fields to automatically convert URLs into clickable hyperlinks.
The formatter, called "Auto Link", includes an option to set the target for the links
(e.g., open in a new tab).
The module detects and replaces URLs that start with http* or www.*,
while preserving new lines in plain text fields.
