How can I prevent a www.example.com URL from becoming a hyperlink, without (ab)using another formatting feature such as inline code formatting? I notice I can quote: “ www.example.com ”, but I’d like to avoid that. Is it possible to somehow escape the auto-link change as I create/edit a post?

Backslashes? www\.example\.com www.example.com

[image] Mittineague: Backslashes? www\.example\.com www.example.com I noticed this solution does not work any longer. It was the first thing I tried before googling and finding this post. I’ll keep looking for a solution. Surprisingly, even www.example.com is converted into a hyperl…

Why in the world would you do any of that when you can simply use a proper code span with the ` key? www.example.com See Markdown Reference

Preformatted text has other meanings. I reject the premise in the first post, it reads like “how can I avoid hitting myself if I really like hitting myself?”

I just want to be able to type out a domain name as text (without formatting/styling) and have enough OCD not only go to length of using <span>.</span>, but also to spend time finding out why \. doesn’t work as expected and post about it. Fortunately, not everyone is cursed with my level of OCD. …
