Extension: Link Button

[rouhu]

It actually just needed this code for link-button.js in actionQuickCreate() and it started working: let entity=model.entityType;
attributes[entity.toLowerCase() + 'Id'] = model.id;

Hello,
I am glad you like the extension.
The “Quick create” feature is an experiment, it only relates to a few entities and only if the field is of type parent I think.

In the future I plan to improve this feature with more customizable options.

[rouhu]

Fantastic extension. Thanks for the creator.
One issue, I noticed that the mode "Quick Create" does not link the new record to the parent record. Is this so by design or is there some specific value needed for the URL ?
Using Espo v9.1.3 and with custom modules.

Sorry. Was trying with the older version. Working fine with Link Button 2.0.0.

Kharg The link button is not compatible with the latest version. Any upgrade planned?

Hey Reginald, what's the issue with version 9.1.5? Could you please provide some more details?

Hi, here it works in ver. 9.1.5. What does not work at your place?

I already mentioned on the first page that you can also insert these into the list view.

Hi , thank you for the update. There was one more question. Can this field be shown in list view as well?

[Kharg]

Hello,

It’s not possible to access the modal of another instance.

You can only use the button to open a new window/popup in this case or you can open the URL content inside an Espo Modal but it will be shown like a popup inside a modal.

I’d suggest you to try the extension and see if it fits your use case

Hi Kharg

It great feature for us. We have 2 instance of Espocrm - CRM and DMS(Document Management). In CRM in a Case item, i want to provide a button to link a Bill Record item in DMS so that when the user click this button they should be able to see that bill record in DMS. Can this be done, especially with 2 different instances of Espocrm in the same browser? Can this field be shown in list view as well?

Thank you for your work. It is a nice and versatile extension.

Version 2.0.0 is finally here! I tried to cover all the most requested features

Changelog:

• ES6 classes and syntax
• Confirmation Dialog for Workflows
• Show "Run Espo Workflow" option only if Advanced Pack is installed
• Now the "Run Espo Workflow" option will check if the workflow is a manual one.
• Added an option to hide the original workflow action button/dropdown in the detail view.
• Popup sizes can now be specified in the field settings

Maybe you could try to edit the extension and add a execute javascript option? But this would be a security risk probably.
