Since that time, Org got a capability to set description function per link type. Just use (org-link-set-parameters "http" :insert-description #'your-function) (org-link-set-parameters "https" :insert-description #'your-function) The calling convention is the same as `org-link-make-description-function'. -- Ihor Radchenko // yantar92, Org mode contributor, Learn more about Org mode at <https://orgmode.org/>.
