- INTRODUCTION
- ------------
- The link can be count to the top 50 projects in Drupal installations and
- provides a standard custom content field for links. With this module links can
- be added easily to any content types and profiles and include advanced
- validating and different ways of storing internal or external links and URLs. It
- also supports additional link text title, site wide tokens for titles and title
- attributes, target attributes, css class attribution, static repeating values,
- input conversion, and many more.
- REQUIREMENTS
- ------------
- Project in Drupal 7 requires the following modules:
- * Fields API (Fields API is provided already by core)
- * Panels (https://drupal.org/project/panels)
- Drupal 8:
- * Link is in core now. No installation needed. Yay! Don't forget to activate
- it. It's deactivated by default.
- INSTALLATION
- ------------
- Install as you would normally install a contributed Drupal module. See:
- https://drupal.org/documentation/install/modules-themes/modules-7 for further
- information.
- CONFIGURATION
- -------------
- * Configuration is only slightly more complicated than a text field. Link text
- titles for URLs can be made required, set as instead of URL, optional
- (default), or left out entirely. If no link text title is provided, the
- trimmed version of the complete URL will be displayed. The target attribute
- should be set to "_blank", "top", or left out completely (checkboxes provide
- info). The rel=nofollow attribute prevents the link from being followed by
- certain search engines. More info at Wikipedia
- (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spam_in_blogs#rel.3D.22nofollow.22).
- EXAMPLE
- -------
- If you were to create a field named 'My New Link', the default display of the
- link would be:
- <em><div class="field_my_new_link" target="[target_value]"><a href="[URL]">
- [Title]</a></div></em> where items between [] characters would be customized
- based on the user input.
- The link project supports both, internal and external URLs. URLs are validated
- on input. Here are some examples of data input and the default view of a link:
- http://drupal.org results in http://drupal.org, but drupal.org results in
- http://drupal.org, while <front> will convert into http://drupal.org and
- node/74971 into http://drupal.org/project/link
- Anchors and query strings may also be used in any of these cases, including:
- node/74971/edit?destination=node/74972<front>#pager
- THEMING AND OUTPUT
- ------------------
- Since link module is mainly a data storage field in a modular framework, the
- theming and output is up to the site builder and other additional modules. There
- are many modules in the Drupal repository, which control the output of fields
- perfectly and can handle rules, user actions, markup dependencies, and can vary
- the output under many different conditions, with much more efficience and
- flexibility for different scenarios. Please check out modules like views,
- display suite, panels, etc for such needs
