    • Can you link a TrackerField type url using plugin List?

    Posted by WizarDave posts: 2695 United States

    I'm working on an External Link Project
    http://jabi.com/Project%3A+External+Links+Using+A+Tracker

    Here's the code:

    Copy to clipboard
    {LIST()}
    {filter field="tracker_field_showOnThisPage" content=""} )
{OUTPUT(template="table")}
    {column field="tracker_field_url" label="url" mode="raw" format="objectlink"}}
    {column field="tracker_field_name" label="Name"}
    {column field="tracker_field_description" label="Description"}
{tablesorter server="n" sortable="type:reset" tsortcolumns="type:text|type:text|type:text" tsfilters="type:text|type:text|type:text" tspaginate="max:10"} 
{OUTPUT}
{LIST}


    A nice page to see it in action...
    http://jabi.com/Tiki

    The problem is the url's are not linked.

    Is there a way to actually have it link to the site, rather than just give the url as plain text?

    Thanks in advance for any ideas!!!

    Hi,

    I think you can. In the tracker make sure that under the options for the URL field, the URL is set to "Display as a link".

    Your use of the LIST command is a bit different to mine, as you have combined the Output and Format statements on the same line of code, I do not know if this is possible or not. This is what I have done, and I think it gives the result you want, selecting the URL from the list opens the website listed. Instead of "objectlink" for the format I have used "trackerrender".
    See below.
    My tracker has two fields - url which is a URL field and desc which is a text area.

    I hope this helps.

    List Code
    Copy to clipboard
    {LIST()}

{filter field="tracker_id" content="33"}

{OUTPUT(template="table")}
      {column field="url" label="WebPage" sort="title" mode="raw"}
      {column field="desc" label="Description" mode="raw"}
       {tablesorter server="n" sortable="type:reset" tsortcolumns="type:text|type:text" tsfilters="type:text|type:text" tspaginate="max:10" sortList="[0,0]"}

 {OUTPUT}

 {FORMAT(name="url")}{display name="tracker_field_url" format=trackerrender}{FORMAT}
 {FORMAT(name="desc")}{display name="tracker_field_desc"  format=snippet length=500 suffix=...}{FORMAT}

{LIST}

    {column field="url" label="url" mode="raw"}}
    {column field="name" label="Name" mode="raw"}
    {column field="description" label="Description" mode="raw"}
{tablesorter server="n" sortable="type:reset" tsortcolumns="type:text|type:text|type:text"  tspaginate="max:10"} 
{OUTPUT}
 {FORMAT(name="url")}{display name="tracker_field_url" format=trackerrender}{FORMAT}
 {FORMAT(name="name")}{display name="tracker_field_name"}{FORMAT}
