Change URL link in Admin Category Browser for internal links

I'm running a site that has no external links. All the data in the URL fields link to a Detailed page. As Links isn't really designed to work this way it causes a problem in Admin > Category Browser.

I would like to change the link in the Category Browser to go to the Detailed page but it currently works like this:

I add a new link (for example Title: Nokia URL: N95) and then when a user clicks on N95 it goes to /Detailed/N95.html which is OK.

In the Admin Category Browser the link goes to /admin/N95 which obviously returns a 404 error.

Can anyone tell me what I need to alter to make the Admin > Category Browser link go to /Detailed/N95.html

Thanks

Hi,

I'm assuming you mean the "Browse" function in the admin area?

Yes, I've found it now. I was looking at .pm files when I should have been looking at templates. Blush

/admin/templates/browser/browser_link_list.html - Line 6

Hi,

Just did a bit of checking, and it looks like the template you want is /admin/templates/browser/browser_link_list.html

Find:

Code:
    <font face="Tahoma,Arial,Helvetica" size="2"><a href="<%escape_html URL%>" target="_blank"><%escape_html URL%></a></font>

..and change to something like:

Code:
    <font face="Tahoma,Arial,Helvetica" size="2"><a href="<%config.build_root_url%>/Detailed/<%URL%>.html" target="_blank"><%config.build_root_url%>/Detailed/<%URL%>.html</a></font>

Hopefully thats what you are after =)

Cheers
