DD Forms: Add friendly name for URL #377

Closed Lowell-Syncrety closed 5 years ago

Lowell-Syncrety commented 5 years ago

I'd like a URL "type" of question that allows me to put in a URL but have a friendly view for it. For example, I have a very long URL that is a Quosal reorder URL the customer can use to reorder toner. Currently outside of using a service like bit.ly or manually creating our own custom DNS entries there's no easy way to just use HTML to show a friendly name for a long URL.

@Lowell-Syncrety you can use markdown to format these URLs. For example:

[I'm an inline-style link](https://verylongurl.verylongurlsarenotuserfriendly.longurl/massiveguid/1234-23123-4124-2333)

Will render as I'm an inline-style link

(github uses markdown too)

OK, that's great! I had put in a ticket and support told me there isn't a way to do it.

Lowell-Syncrety commented 5 years ago

Nice! And you already did it for me. :)
