How to add link text to url?

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
I want to add custom text to the link of an URL Field created by Toolset Types.
How?

Solution:
You can have Links saved in a URL Field with a custom label for the link coming from another field, you can either use the ShortCode like the below

[types field='url' title='[types field="my_title_field"]'][/types]

or, a custom HTML link like the below

<a href="[types field='url' output='raw'][/types]">[types field='my_title_field' output='raw'][/types]</a>

Note that the URL should be saved in an URL Field.

I am not sure what you mean, please correct me if wrong, however, if you plan to output Links saved in a Field with a custom label for the link coming from another field, you can either use the ShortCode like [types field='url' title='[types field="my_title_field"]'][/types] or, a custom HTML link like the below

<a href="[types field='url' output='raw'][/types]">[types field='my_title_field' output='raw'][/types]</a>

Note that the URL should be saved in an URL Field.
