Link previews are a way to see an overview of a link's content before
|
||
|
|
clicking on it. Previews can provide a useful summary of the content of a site
|
||
|
|
before you click on it, while also providing a quick integrity check to ensure
|
||
|
|
the link you meant to post is in fact correct.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Follow these steps to enable link previews:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Open the `zproject/settings.py` file in the Zulip directory.
|
||

To learn more about the settings and how to configure
|
||
|
|
them, take a look at [this documentation](https://zulip.readthedocs.io/en/latest/subsystems/settings.html)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2. Search for the line with the attribute `INLINE_URL_EMBED_PREVIEW` and set the
|
||
|
|
value from `False` to `True` to enable the embed preview feature.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
3. Restart the server to apply the changes.
|
