## Description

Tired of link every Twitter profile cited in your posts and pages? Birdfy allows
you to automagically transforms your @users and #hashtags markups in your posts/
pages into links to Twitter profiles/hashtags search.

All you have to do is install this plugin, and you’re good to go.

**Features**

 * Automatically discovers @ and # content into your posts and pages (excluding 
   e-mails, dots after usernames and so on);
 * You can disable users and/or hashtags discovery both globally or in individual
   posts/pages;
 * Optionally, you can choose to open the links in a new window/tab.

**Usage**

Simply install the plugin and start to cite Twitter profiles by using @ before the
twitter username you want to link, and the plugin will transform it into a link 
to the profile. Same with hashtags, by simply use # before any word – like in Twitter.

If you want to fine tune the plugin, you still can go to the Options page, named“
Birdy Settings” (inside the Settings menu) and enable/disable the options you want.
Remember that this options will act globally.

You may want to disable @users/#hashtags links in individual posts/pages also. In
this case, just disable what you want in the box created inside your post/page administration
page.

## Installation

Drop Birdfy folder into /wp-content/plugins/ and activate the plug in the WordPress
admin area.

## FAQ

  Will this plugin make the @ and # links for my past posts and pages?

Yup! Don’t worry about that; the plugin will search and destr… oops, and generate
the correct links for you. 🙂

  The links is not being generated in my excerpts. Why?

Well… Actually because it don’t. Maybe in the future, but by now, the plugins are
only generated in the full post/page content.

  I activated the plugin, but I guess the links is not being generated.

Make sure you don’t have any cache plugin (like WP Supercache) running on your installation.
If this is your case, just delete your cache and everything should be fine. If not,
drop me a message at hilder[at]hildersantos.com and I’ll look further on you problem–
if I have time. 😉
