Extend URL, CopyClipboardURL widget features to ease customization of anchor’s text.
By default, the URL, CopyClipboardURL widget will show the plain URL. You can specify an attribute to provide a static label too.
With this module, you can use a field for link’s inner text using attribute ‘text_field’. You can also add a prefix to the link using attribute ‘prefix_name’.
Until 13.0 this functionality was separated in modules ‘web_widget_url_advanced’ and ‘web_widget_prefixed_url’
Table of contents
Use url, CopyClipboardURL widget as you do usually, then add an extra parameter text_ field to indicate which field (present in the view already) must be used for the anchor text.
<field name="some_url" widget="url" text_field="another_field" />
M2O fields are supported: display_name is used automatically.
For example, in the partner form, if you want to display the website link with partner’s name as anchor you can do:
<field name="website" widget="url" text_field="name" placeholder="e.g. www.odoo.com"/>
This is going to change the rendering from
to
Or user can add any hyperlink text using ‘prefix_name’ attribute
<field name="skype_name" widget="url" prefix_name="skype"/>
both can be applied inside the options attribute too:
<field name="skype_name" widget="url" options="{'prefix_name': 'skype'}"/>
