Works for all plain text phone numbers, but anything with an embedded "tel:" link is ignored (and the standalone OnSIP app also cannot open these). These links are pretty common across most modern websites these days. Can you not add this functionality to the extension to override a tel: link with the onsip: link? If so, full 5 stars. Otherwise, I'm giving it the proportionate amount of stars based on the percent of time it actually converts phone numbers correctly.

Totally misleading...says it's a free plugin, but upon deeper inspection it's only free if you're a paying customer.
