Labeling a formidable link

Labels

This Discussion is public

Notifications

I used Formidable forms and presented the information in tableView using File Away plugin. Now i want one column values to be linked to other pages. Like "View More". And then that page is redirected to another detailed information page. I used shortcode [x clickable=1]. Now its working fine. But i want to add a label i mean instead of that whole link i want it to be just labled as "View More".

Kindly let me know how to achieve this.

What you want to do is not possible without custom code. When you use the "clickable" parameter in a Formidable shortcode, it passes the content to the WordPress make_clickable function for processing. The make_clickable function has been a WordPress Core function since Version 0.71. All this function can do is convert text links to real links. https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/make_clickable

The alternative would be to create your own shortcode or figure out a way to hook into Formidable's process. This is way beyond the scope of what I can offer you as a community volunteer. It could take a day or more to figure out a workaround. My suggestion is to live with it as it is. If you have a budget and want to discuss project work, please feel free to reach out. https://victorfont.com/project-inquiry/
