how do I get hyperlinked field to work in popup

The field is hyperlinked in the table but I am configuring the popup (custom config) but can't seem to get the hyperlink to appear to click on.

Hi Siran,

Make sure you have http:// or https:// included with the URL. Also, does the hyperlink work when you are not in the custom config?

Hi Jake,

First I changed the http://to https:// and then tried just a regular configure of attribute fields in the pop up. The ‘More Info’ link appears in the regular pop up but now the https:// does not work.

I’m going back to http:// in the link…….

I’d like to do a custom pop up but maybe not able to?

To have this work with a custom config:

1. Add your field

2. Highlight the field and click the 'link' icon

3. Specify the field name for the URL parameter

Ex:

You should then receive a hyperlink:

Jake,

I even added a url link in the custom attribute display to the web site (link properties by clicking on the chain icon) the word Contract appears as a hyperlink below but it doesn’t appear when the popup comes up when clicked on the map.

Success!

Here are the results:

· I highlighted the field which has the hyperlink. Must remove ‘s’ from http to get it to work.

· Copied the field name

· Clicked on the link and pasted into Link Properties—in URL field and Link text field.

· Result: click on the hyperlink and it goes to the page with all the contracts listed. It’s the same hyperlink for ALL the area polygons on my map. Wonder if this has to be done individually if different hyperlinks for each area?

Thanks a bunch!

You can specify the field name with {} for the URL parameter. See my post above.
