You could do it with a regex, but I think DiapDealer's sample editor plugin might do a better job. Will require manually configuring the config file. Nope, doesn't seem to be configurable. He might add in link tag support, but in the meantime...

Hmmm. From a suggestion of mine in the Modify EPUB expansion discussion: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...83#post2801083

Search:

Code:

<a href="[^<>]*">((?:(?!<(?:a|/a)).)*)</a>

Replace:

Code:

\1

How does that look? (In terms of working, not reading.

)

Should handle nested tags. (And a byproduct is that if, for some godawful reason there are nested link tags which should NEVER happen, it'd still work. I could probably do this the short way, then, with lazy searching, but I like this masterpiece, plus I like copy-pasting previous solutions.

)
