I am pretty sure the answer will be building a shortcode, but before I do this work...is there anyway, natively in views, to get the basename of a URL? For example, if I load a custom field for an image thumbnail src, is there a way to just get the basename from the src instead of the entire link (basically the wp_basename function)?

Thanks,
Suzanne

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

For the custom image field, you can display image tag, raw value or URL of a resized version of the image - these are the possible option.

If you want to display the filename, you just need to write a shortcode that returns the filename.
