Reply To: Script to create URL-s from text frames

That is specific enough to not exist anywhere. No sweat, though. Fortunately it is small enough and quick to write.

Select any of your threaded frames, and run this script. Be warned that it exactly does what it says on the tin: it blandly and blindly converts the text inside each frame to a single hyperlink by pasting “https://” in front of it and then connects that one link to its parent text frame. I have no idea what happens if there already is a link connected to the frame, or if you (accidentally or otherwise) have more text than a single link inside a text frame. Feel free to experiment, though :)

tc = app.selection[0].parentStory.textContainers;
for (f=0; f<tc.length; f++)
{
    src = app.activeDocument.hyperlinkPageItemSources.add(tc[f]);
    dest = app.activeDocument.hyperlinkURLDestinations.add('https://'+tc[f].contents.replace(/+$/, ''));
    app.activeDocument.hyperlinks.add(src, dest);
}
