"Link to original content" not working #8

Closed OpsTao closed 5 years ago

OpsTao commented 5 years ago

Trying to set up FullCalendar and associated custom content type to work in Backdrop as it had been working in Drupal 7. A content type "Calendar Event" was created, and the View settings for FullCalendar are reading on those fields. However the Title field option "Link this field to the original piece of content" isn't working as expected. It loads the page containing a FullCalendar block into a new tab, and reports "link not found." What am I missing?

Can you attach an export of your view as a text file here?

OpsTao commented 5 years ago

A text file export of a view is new to me, but I think I found it correctly; attached. calendar_view-export.txt

@OpsTao If I'm reading this export correctly, my first suggestion is to uncheck this box in FullCalendar settings on the View:

You are correct, that solves the problem. Thanks! However opens the original content in a separate tab – not necessarily bad but I don't see what is making it do that.

What I really would prefer: Can you imagine a way to get a FullCalendar content item to open in a lightbox-type modal window (maybe via ColorBox module), and showing only the core text content, not enclosed in a site default page?

@OpsTao That might be possible with Colorbox Node, but I don't think it's ported (yet). If you are able to port and test it that would be great, otherwise you can put in a port request here.

See this example question/answer.
