I placed just the URL, and it linked it OK, but opens in same window.
Not tried with html code

Again, by default the system don't link stuff. You can use the function at views/user.php to display links. Which function? G\linkify($var)

I never noticed how hard this could be for someone who doesn't code. Yep, I saw this: https://www.sitepoint.com/community/t/i-want-to-linkify-something/280826
Let me explain in detail how simple this is, but please read. Don't skip one single word. Don't worry, is not that complicated.
1. You need to know exactly what you want to modify. There is a complete guide on how to find something, here.
If you inspect using your browser, you will get something like this:
As is explained in the guide.
You need to find this: description-text margin-bottom-5
2. As I told you earlier, the code is on app/themes/Peafowl/views/image.php
From there, you only need to pass the description to the linkify function. Indeed this is simple as changing this:
To this:
If you want to avoid passing juice (SEO) replace G\linkify with CHV\linkify_redirector in the code above.
Easy isn't?
By the way, G\ is the namespace. The function declaration is made inside the namespace, so the function declaration is written without the namespace.

@Oakley rolls eyes....
Why are you looking for "G\linkify($var)", thats not what Rodolfo said above?
He said you should using that to create the links by adding it and amending the existing code.
You are looking for "description-text margin-bottom-5" in image.php
Note that image.php exists in several places but the one you want is here:
app/themes/Peafowl/views/image.php
And the piece of code you are looking for is on line 141:
description-text margin-bottom-5
Then edit that line as instructed above.
Make sure you keep a copy of existing files in case you mess em up.
Gee, I don't know. Maybe it's because in one of his previous answers he said
You can use the function at views/user.php to display links. Which function? G\linkify($var)
That was the only thing that had anything at all to do with linkify code so I figured i searching there.
@Rodolfo, thank you for breaking it down and simplifying it for me. I do appreciate it. Your answers make a little more sense.
I'll just be honest. I find many of your answers hard to wrap my head around, and not just the ones to me. To me they are rather short and abrupt. Now if I was more experienced I'm sure I'd understand them better. That's why I posted at Sitepoint. I was hoping someone there could help me a little with what you were saying.
There's alot I'd like to do with Chevereto and alot I'd like to learn but I get the impression your very busy and don't have much time for "tutoring". I get that, I do. I was really hoping someone who has done a little with Cheverto could have answered me.
But thank you for the links to those guides. I'll look those over first chance I get.
Have a good one.
