Option to paste plain URL

Right now if I paste a URL into Dynalist, it automatically get pasted as [https://www.example.com/some/other/stuff/foo/bar](https://www.example.com/some/other/stuff/foo/bar), basically the URL gets doubled.

Problem:

  • I rarely want to give a name to my link and want to paste it just ā€œas isā€, ex. https://www.example.com/some/other/stuff/foo/bar (without the [...](...) parts)
  • This means most of the time, I have to manually shorten it to ā€œjust the urlā€ after pasting it
  • Or live with the url being essentially doubled, which makes editing notes clumsy (for me)

Solution:

  • Please add an option in the settings, where I can choose if URLā€™s pasted should be added just ā€œas isā€ or in the [...](...) style
  • I am fine with the current behavior [...](...) being the default for that setting

If youā€™re on a PC, you can press Ctrl + Shift + V. Thisā€™ll only paste the url.

Have this behaviror changed ?

I pasted a URL into Dynalist today and I noticed that it was pasted just ā€as isā€ , not in the [ā€¦] (ā€¦) style as before.
