@hyouuu I think this is tricky because it's confusing which detectors the cell is going to be using. I do agree that we can improve this. I'm guessing your problem is you want to modify the detectors but it's too difficult for you to subclass?

I think most MessageKit users would use a subclass to MessagesViewController e.g.:
class SomeVC: MessagesViewController {}
But MessagesViewController doesn't provide a way to override the data detectors for each message, whereas its MessagesCollectionView var has MessagesLayoutDelegate etc, which I feel is the best place to override this.
Let me know if there is a better way of approaching this or I missed something - thanks!

@hyouuu I've given this some thought and I don't think it makes sense that this is declared as part of the MessageLabelDelegate. I'm going to close this for now but thank you for making me aware of this limitation. In an upcoming change I will address this and ping you for your input.

Looking forward to it!
