[EP-tech] Re: How to make related URLs appear as text links and not bare URLs?

Thanks, Seb.

In eprint_fields.pl, there is this stanza:

{
>             'name' => 'related_url',
>             'type' => 'compound',
>             'multiple' => 1,
>             'render_value' => 'EPrints::Extras::render_related_url',
>             'fields' => [
>                           {
>                             'sub_name' => 'url',
>                             'type' => 'url',
>                             'input_cols' => 40,
>                           },
>                           {
>                             'sub_name' => 'type',
>                             'type' => 'set',
>                             'options' => [
>                                            'pub',
>                                            'author',
>                                            'org',
>                                          ],

Is the above what I need to tweak?

Regards,

Alex

While somewhat outdated, this still applies:

Also check EPrints::Extras::render_related_url() which seems to do something similar to what you want.

So, for instance, I would like this URL http://www.mdx.ac.uk/aboutus/staffdirectory/Stewart_Anthony.aspx to appear as the hyperlinked text "Middlesex University Staff Profile".
