Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Half Baked Link Injection

No. If a phrase appears inside an existing <a> tag, it is ignored and not replaced.

No. Rules are applied to post and page content only via the_content.

It uses whole-word boundaries, so it will not match partial words. For example, “cat” will not match “catch”.

Rules are evaluated by priority (lower wins). If priorities match, newer rules win. Existing links are never modified, and the plugin will not create nested links.

Yes. Add tokens in the rule’s Rel field. For external URLs, noopener noreferrer are always added.

Rules are stored locally in your WordPress database in a single option.
