New feature: Rule to add URLs from content

Digest newsletters, digest blogs, and link blogs are a terrific way to discover content. They monitor the internet for articles relevant to their chosen area, and tell their readers about them. Some publish once per week, others every day.

Until now they were added to Lighthouse the same as any other article. As user you had to look through it yourself and manually add the items you found interesting.

With this new rule Lighthouse can now do that for you.

When creating a rule, select the action Add links from content.

Such posts can have a large number of links, and not all of them are desired to show up in the inbox. For example links that exist in every post. It's possible to ignore them by setting a filter.

With the rule the links from posts of Test Newsletter are automatically added to the inbox as well, as if they were published by Test Newsletter directly.

(obviously this is sample data, the newsletter doesn't really exist, it's just for illustration purposes)

With that it's much easier to handle link digest posts, you can filter the links they post in the same way as any other posts, in the Lighthouse inbox.
