Element custom link does not work when used as placeholder in form email plugin

[gnavarro]

Hi,

My config:
Fabrik 3.4.2
Joomla! 3.4.8
Template - Protostar
Updated from github
Access to site admin in my Fabrik account

I have a list where one of my elements have the following custom link (element list senttings attached):
http://www.fisiolar.pt/index.php?op...fb_avaliacao_tratamentos___id_tratamento_raw}

This custom link works perfect when element value clicked in the list. The problem is when I use it as placeholder in the form email plugin... When I click in the element value inside the received email it takes me to an empty record because the placeholder {fb_avaliacao_tratamentos___id_tratamento_raw} goes empty through the email, beeing the final url like:

http://www.fisiolar.pt/index.php/pt/?option=com_fabrik&view=details&formid=11&usekey=id&rowid=

What am I missing? Thanks in advance?

What is id_tratamento? Is it a join element? Does this happen when editing, or on new rows, or both?

Hugh,

id_tratamento is a dbjoin and happens when submitting new rows... I don't know about editing becauase in the email plugin is configured on new.

What exactly do you set in your email plugin?

 

[gnavarro]

Hi Troester,

The configs are attached.

 

[troester]

And which element in your message text contains the custom link?
Did you try to create the link directly in your message?
Why do you have &usekey=id in your link (this is the default)

 

[gnavarro]

And which element in your message text contains the custom link?

{fb_avaliacao_tratamentos___id_tratamento}

Did Did you try to create the link directly in your message?

No... but I will try

Why do you have &usekey=id in your link (this is the default)

Didn't now I will remove it.

Wait for my tests... Thanks

 

[gnavarro]

So...
I've removed the &usekey=id but this has not correct the problem.

I've used the following html codes:

 <a href="http://www.fisiolar.pt/index.php?option=com_fabrik&view=details&formid=11&rowid={fb_avaliacao_tratamentos___id_tratamento_raw}" target="_blank">{fb_avaliacao_tratamentos___id_tratamento}</a><br><br>

problem maintains... link does not include rowid value

Included _raw in link description:

 <a href="http://www.fisiolar.pt/index.php?option=com_fabrik&view=details&formid=11&rowid={fb_avaliacao_tratamentos___id_tratamento_raw}" target="_blank">{fb_avaliacao_tratamentos___id_tratamento_raw}</a><br><br>

link include rowid value and works but the description is the raw value

Other information is that my email are being processed by mandrill and once it monitors clicks in the emails the original link is under a mandrill link. Nevertheless I don?t believe that Mandrill will destroy links!

And you turned off the detail link option on the element?

-- hugh

 

[gnavarro]

Hugh,

Sorry what do you mean with that? I have in element list settings 'Link to details' to 'yes'... Should it be to 'No'?

 

[cheesegrits]

I'm just wondering if that might be breaking the formatting of the element in the email. Try turning that off, and see if it makes any difference.

I can't replicate this, I can build a link using raw and non-raw. So it's hard to know what to suggest.

[gnavarro]

I've tried and the placeholder continues to return null

Also tried with Always Render 'Yes' and nothing...

 

[cheesegrits]

OK, I can duplicate it using a detail link, so I'll have a go at fixing that. I can't duplicate it when building a lin manually in the template tho, that works fine.

[gnavarro]

Hugh,

If you could go and fix using a detail link.... It will work for me

Thanks in advance!

 

[gnavarro]

Hi Hugh,

Any update about this?

 

[cheesegrits]

Nope.

I'm testing a fix now. Took a while to track down.

Should be fixed as of this commit:

https://github.com/Fabrik/fabrik/commit/0a15cd609bc09ea62f6149f9574845d11bce3b88

... if you use the custom detail link.
