Topic: Adding new functionality to convert link into image or video

Hi,

I am trying to see if it would be possible to extend the editor so that it can automatically convert a pasted URL (e.g. from youtube or flickr) into an image or an video embed.

Are there any plugins, hooks or callbacks that I should look into, or any similar examples?

Thanks!

You don't need a plugin. I did both functions with the "paste_text_replacements" option.

I can post the code if you want it... you'll have to add it to your editor config.
