Please help with the plugin Views. I can not find the answer in the documentation.
I have another plugin Popup Press. With it, I create links to pop-ups.
I would like to change the code to the text links displayed value of custom field. Here's the code that displays links:
case 'plain-text':
$button_popup = '<a href="#" class="pps-button-popup-'.$popup_id.' '.$values['pps_button_class'][0].' '.$class_run.'" title="'.$values['pps_button_title'][0].'">'.$values['pps_button_text'][0].'</a>';
break;
How to change the value button_title and button_text for Views? I can insert shortcodes, but it does not fit here. For example, I would like to insert [wpv-post-field name="myfield"] or [wpv-post-title].
Thank you for contacting us here in the Support Forum
This code seems from the Source Files of the Plugin, and it calls a $variable for the Title and Diaply Text of the Button.
Aren't those variables editable in a GUI of the Plugin?
It seems trance to me, that you have to edit PHP core files to customize a buttons text or title for it.
You can try to customize this with the Types API:
https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/displaying-wordpress-custom-fields/#1
echo types_render_field("custom-field-slug-name", array("argument1"=>"value1","argument2"=>"value2","argument2"=>"value2"));
Another approach if you want to execute a short code is to use wpv_do_shortcode() to execute Views ShortCodes.
But in any case, this is modification of a 3rd party plugin's Core Files, it needs programming work which is beyond the scope of our support.
You could also ask the Plugins Authors on their suggestions how to change those $variables.
At this point I would suggest you consider contacting one of our certified partners from this link:

You will get the custom assistance you need to get on with your project.
I also highly suspect there must be sort of a GUI where you can change those $variables and if so, you should be able to use any of our short codes as title/text, as long the plugin supports nested short codes.
Please let me know if you have further questions regarding the issue mentioned in this Thread
Thank you for your patience.
