Theses, Books, Title pages ⇒ How to hyperlink all Bibliography URLs?

[templateuser]

First, many thanks to the ones taking care of this website. Really excellent stuff!

I changed the default style to abbrvnat from the template as it fits the requirement better

\bibliographystyle{abbrvnat} % Use the "unsrtnat" BibTeX style for formatting the Bibliography

I want to have all urls in my references list to be hyperlinked say under the word "URL".

I've 100+ urls and some are very long, its not looking very nice. Ideally, a quick solution which results in having all URLs hyperlinked under the word URL..

Please note below example is not really helpful, it will take me ages to do this manually for each entry!

note = {\href{http}{text}}

Hey,

Nice username Thanks for the kind words about the website!

This looks like it will solve your problem - though it is not really advisable - you can use the redefinition

Code: Select all

\DeclareFieldFormat{url}{\href{#1}{\underline{Link}}}

this definition will print the full URL if hyperref is not enabled

Code: Select all

\DeclareFieldFormat{url}{%
  \ifhyperref
    {\href{#1}{\underline{Link}}}
    {\url{#1}}}

Or maybe even - making use of the localisation capabilities biblatex offers

Code: Select all

\DefineBibliographyStrings{english}{%
  url = {link},
}

\DeclareFieldFormat{url}{%
  \ifhyperref
    {\href{#1}{\bibstring{url}}}
    {\url{#1}}}

This was written by moewe at http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/165656/ but as said it may not be advisable as readers of the physical copy won't be able to follow the URL.

Cheers,
