How to detect and make link/mention/hashtag clickable in UILabel. Alternatively, is there any open source library that I can utilize (I already looked at Fancy UILabel which doesn’t handle multiline tex, TTAttributedLabel which doesn’t handle mention/hashtag)?
There is no way to do so with UILabel in the current iOS…
TTTAttributedLabel will let you style up your label, however for clickable (or rather – tappable) links you should rather either use a UIWebView and style it in such a was as to disguise it as a Label, or, you could get geeky and split your labels up and use a UIButton in the mix, but that’s very messy – like a puzzle, only… they don’t fit together.
Last option you might have is to overlay a UIButton over a link, but this requires that you know where the link is and since the question was about detecting links etc…
You should really look into UIWebView.
