XF 1.5 How to add a hyperlink in phrase?

[abdfahim]

Is it possible to hyperlink a word in the phrase? Right now, if I do like below, it takes it literally without parsing as HTML.

<a href="xenforo.com">This is link to XF site</a>

Actually, hyperlink works in some phrases like "your_account_is_currently_awaiting_confirmation_confirmation_sent_to_x", but not in some other phrases like "search_could_not_be_completed_because_search_keywords_were_too". Is it as designed?

Is it as designed?

Yes.

Can anyone please give a hint how can I put a hyperlink in the phrase search_could_not_be_completed_because_search_keywords_were_too?

I think a template update is required, but I am not sure what changes I should make.

Just edit the template and use regular HTML for the URL: https://www.w3schools.com/html/html_links.asp

That I know I can do, but I have to hard code the phrase in that case, right? For example, I have a phrase

my_phrase = If you want this, <a href="www.example.com">click here</a>.

In some XF templates, if I use that phrase, it takes it literally without html parsing

{xen:phrase my_phrase}

If you want this, <a href="www.example.com">click here</a>.

Now, to use regular html, I have to hard code the phrase like because doing that won't serve my purpose, right?

<a href="www.example.com">{xen:phrase my_phrase}</a>.
