Automatic linking of citations to SC IDs

References to SuttaCentral content are now supported natively for Pali Sutta and Vinaya pitaka (including segment ID notation) and for the Agamas. No need for switching browser windows and copy-pasting links from SC to the forum any more!

To insert a link to a sutta (or a specific segment of the sutta) in the post, simply enter the text notation for the sutta id as defined on the SuttaCentral site, followed by the optional segment notation using a colon and segment ID (be careful with the segment notations, nonexistent segment IDs redirect to the beginning of the sutta).

Examples

MN 1 → MN 1
MN 1:2.1 → MN 1:2.1
Bi Pc 1 → Bi Pc 1
Bi Pc 1:1.41.1 → Bi Pc 1:1.41.1
MĀ 1 → MĀ 1
MA 1 → MA 1

Happy referencing!
