Title: Create link based on tagged value
Post by: Robert Lelieveld on March 22, 2017, 11:39:04 pm

Hi,

Is there a way to generate a link using tagged values?

Something like this:
Link Text   {Element.valueOf(value1)}
Link Code  https://www.link.to/{Element.valueOf(value1)}

Inserting a hyperlink with the above value just create a hyperlink named '{Element.valueOf(value1)}' pointing to 'https://www.link.to/{Element.valueOf(value2)}'.
Ideally, when value1 is not set, the link is not created at all.

While browsing the forum, I noticed an option to link to elements using GUIDs.
However, no word on generating links like this.

How could this be accomplished?

Thanks!


Kind regards,
Robert

Solved!

Found that this can be done by creating a SQL fragment and using the .Formatted option in combination with HTML code.
Nice.


Kind regards,
Robert
