relation between fields image field to a "Link to a URL"

This item page looks exactly how we want:
reggaefusion.info/reggaefusion-f ... Itemid=164

Each image in the item has a "Link to a URL" entered manually for each image to display in a popup.

The client has the urls entered in database columns, and changing the thousands of database entries to the format suggested ( [-propertyname-]=propertyvalue, and separate mutliple properties) would be very time consuming.

Is there a way to create a relation between fields in the Prefix/Suffix area to accomplish this ?
(the things I have tried have not worked)

Other ideas ?

maybe you can create a rule with rereplacer component ?

ooh, great idea. I am not super proficient with the rereplacer component, but I will try some things. I will follow up with my success (or failure).

Hello

propably you can use rereplacer component as Micker suggested to achieve what you need

you ask of this:

i am not sure that i understand you well



if the field name of you flexicontent image field is:
imgfield45

then you can use this:
{{imgfield45##0##imglink}}

inside the prefix / suffix of another field

e.g. inside the prefix of text field that has default value: "Click to open image"

you can add to the prefix of it:
<a src="{{imgfield45##0##imglink}}" target="_blank">
and to the suffix:

How to use raw field values inside the value of other fields

I continue to struggle with this.

I want the url entered in the field "Bio3_url" to be used in the "Link to a URL:" field (currently added within each item) for the field "Bio#_image". As the component currently works, it would open a larger image unless an entry is made in the item of "Link to a URL:"

If you go to
reggaefusion.info/reggaefusion-f ... Itemid=164

Click on any of the top 3 images, they load a website url in a model popup window - that is what I am trying to automate.

The bottom image is the one I have been trying to get to work...

I believe this could be accomplished if the the database was coded for multi-value fields, however we are talking about thousands of entries.

At this point I would really like to hire somebody to get assistance with this, as this is the only thing preventing this project from moving forward.

I have added an image to help explain what is needed.

ALTERNATIVE 1

a. add some CSS to hide the link property of image field in item form

b. use some Javascript / jQuery to copy the value entered in the weblink field to the hidden property of image field



ALTERNATIVE 1

a. disable the link property in image field

b.you may edit the template files
compoents/com_flexicontent/templates/TMPL_NAME/item(_html5).php
and
compoents/com_flexicontent/templates/TMPL_NAME/category_items(_html5).php

and create the links around the images of image field
see FAQ article:
Using the raw value of a field inside a template file or inside a new custom field type


-- thus you can use the properties of weblink field:
$v
$v

the command:
var_dump($v);

will show you the properties of each weblink field value, please see the FAQ article
