Easier way to enter interwiki link?

Hi,

As far as I know, to use interwiki the syntax is [[interwiki:definition:abcd]], the it shows link to https://www.yourdictionary.com/abcd

We have our own ticketing system. Is it possible to just type T1234 then xwiki would recognize this and make it hyperlink with 1234 in the link?

The inter wiki format is interwiki:...

What you want can be achieved through a custom Rendering Transformarion. See for example existing transformations such as the wikiword transformation or the icon transformation. Actually I guess we could implement a generic transformation for finding and replacing full words, configured with a pattern and a replacement pattern.

If you want to write a transformation you’ll need to code in java.

Open question: is that a feature you’d be interested in implementing yourself and contribute it to the XWiki project? If you’re not a java dev, is that a feature you’d be interested in sponsoring?
