  • URLs not loading in detail view.

    I have a field of type "url" which has a fairly long URL to to an external website. When I open the particular entity from the list view the data in the field will be displayed as "..." instead of the URL and is not a link which can be clicked. Only after refreshing the page, the URL will be accessible.

    I checked the network tab in the dev tools to see the data that is sent from the backend and the URL is present under the respective field.

    I also tried changing the field type from "url" to "longtext" and it is still the same. Any idea why this is happening?

    By default URL is of field type varchar with limit to 255 characters. In espoCRM Administrator you can increase the length (max length). I tested it here with 400 characters, what worked. There might be a limit, but you could test, where that is. 1000 characters did not work here.

    Perhaps this extension could help also: https://docs.dubas.pro/extensions/short-url/#demo

      It's not the issue with size of the URL, my URLs are only 100 characters long which is well below 255 limit of varchar.

      It's an issue with rendering the view.
