Trying to get all links in my posts

After further investigation, I noticed my theme was actually replacing all the anchor tags with shortcodes for SEO purposes, so there weren’t any links in the content anymore. I was able to make it work by replacing

$content = get_the_content();

with

$content = apply_filters( 'the_content', get_the_content() );
