[Resuelto] Types url field without displaying http://

I am trying to: add a types url field without displaying "enlace oculto" in front end

f I want to add a link to a website, I must add "enlace oculto" to link to another website. If I do not, it adds the address link to my own website and look like this:
enlace oculto

It would have been nicer if I'm on the site could just show the link address without the http://
So I will not display http:// on the front end of my websit, but I will somehow add it in code so it will work as it had been added.
How do I that?

Hi Torjborn,

Thank you for contacting our support forum.

Unfortunately this is not possible as out plugin output the link exactly how you placed it in your backend.

What I would recommend that you do is to create a custom shortcode to retrieve the field value from the database and stripping off the http:// section before displaying it on the frontend.

Please let me know if this helps.

Thanks,
Shane

I've seen this done in Drupal Views, so it must be possible...

Can you point us in the right direction to
"create a custom shortcode to retrieve the field value from the database and stripping off the http:// section before displaying it on the frontend"

That sounds like exactly what I want to do.

Oh I got this figured out.

function shorturl_shortcode(){
   $weblink = do_shortcode('[types field="website-address" output="raw"][/types]');
$find = array( '<em><u>enlace oculto</u></em>', '<em><u>enlace oculto</u></em>' );
$replace = '';
$output = str_replace( $find, $replace, $weblink );
return '<a href="'.$weblink.'">' . $output . '</a>';

}

add_shortcode('shorturl','shorturl_shortcode'); 

?>

So the field="website-address" is your types website field, and display it using [shorturl]

It would be a nice feature to have this as a built in option in Views though, https:// still scares visitors.
