Q: How to extract URLs from a string with php ?

A: use the php function preg_match_all to acvhieve this.

example

// example string with URLs
$sContent = 'https://blog.ueffing.net, FOO BAR BLA BLA https://www.ueffing.net/, BLA BLA https://github.com/gueff';

$sPattern = "/\b(?:(?:https?|ftp):\/\/|www\.)[-a-z0-9+&@#\/%?=~_|!:,.;]*[-a-z0-9+&@#\/%=~_|]/i";
preg_match_all(
    $sPattern,
    $sContent,
    $aMatch, // <= saves result into $aMatch
    PREG_PATTERN_ORDER
);

a var_dump($aMatch); will then give you

array(1) {
  [0]=>
  array(3) {
    [0]=>
    string(24) "https://blog.ueffing.net"
    [1]=>
    string(24) "https://www.ueffing.net/"
    [2]=>
    string(24) "https://github.com/gueff"
  }
}
