What does the link you insert into the button look like?

hi everyone!
When I try to open a Modal espo, it returns a 404 erroe.
I would like to link each key to open a different modal, Email, task, call.
How can I do that?
Thanks.

Right now all I'm doing is using button to do "preview" and popup. Save me having the trouble to go into the Record itself. It looking quite neat.

Surely there is better way to use this extension but I'm just not creative enough.

Hi shalmaxb,
you can replace all your WYSIWYG fields with this extension probably.

and if you have got ideas for new features propose them

Hi, I use for long time already creating buttons with the WYSIWYG field using Bootstrap code and string/concatenate formula. This plugin from Kharg could be very handy I guess. I did not test yet.
With Bootstrap buttons you can create buttons for whatever is possible by a link. I created Buttons to switch to other entities from one entity, printing PDF and the last one I created, triggered the whole process of creating a PDF, attaching to an Email (with template) and sending the email.
This Email had to be sent out in two languages, depending on the target email, which I realized with one button, which triggered depending on a bool field (englisch true, german false), which formula to execute (englisch or german).
This process would take a user to do many steps, when done manually. Thanks to this wonderful espoCRM, very basic "coding" skills (like mine) are leading to very convincing solutions.

Kargh,
i have many idea with my experiment but not skill

feel free to ask my "experiment"

[Kharg]

That’s a cool idea!

Hi Kharg,
i actually don't use your extension but i think i will use in this case : print-to-pdf
As you now, print-to-pdf .. open a "select template" .. then you select..
In my case, model have a field let say "language" .. so the button will direct print-to-pdf with model->language

What do you think

[Kharg]

I just noticed that I forgot to add a basic mode, so I just released version 1.5.0 with the following changes:

• Removed strip url option
• Added Open Url option

Open Url will directly redirect to the field url in the current tab, useful if you want an alternative to an entity linked record.

[Kharg]

Not possible unfortunately, it wouldn’t know what’s the start or the end.

Kharg this arrow button here, so we can look at all related record. I think this is hard and not possible (easily)?

[Kharg]

I already got other requests to support the url of a list, doesn't look so easy

as for the second request, do you mean an array of buttons? just like multi urls work?

[esforim]

Mr Kharg! I'm trying to be smart!

One of my relationship is a Many-to-Many, so it is an array field. To use this button, I do a formula like this to view the 1st relationship.

cButtonVendor=string\concatenate($urlContact,array\at(contactsVendorIds,0))

After playing with this a few day now, I thought, "Hey!" isn't there a related list? URL is like so:
https://espocrm.com/#Case/related/52...contactsVendor



Anyway trying to be smart I tried to use that URL, unfortunately it Error 404.

So... too long didn't read feature request:

1) Request support of URL list (if possible)
2) Support of Array, so we can move left/right like email.
