I am trying to: I'm using a url link field and want to substitute the link with a custom name ie.

Source: <_a href="[types field='link' target='_blank'][/types]">[types field='source-name'][/types]<_/a>

Output is at bottom: hidden link

I expected to see: Source: Test Test

Instead, I got: Source: <_a href="hidden link Test<_/a>

Hi Damond,

Thank you for contacting Toolset Support. I can not see anything on this page, it says “Oops! That page can’t be found.”(see attached screenshot): hidden link

I am not quite clear on the requirements and it is confusing a bit. I noticed there is an additional underscore_ in your source code, please try this one:

<a href="[types field='link' target='_blank'][/types]">[types field='source-name'][/types]</a>

Can you please provide working frontend page and backend screenshot for this?

Looking forward to help you, Thank you

Hi Noman,

I accidentally deleted the page. Here's a new link with the same error.

hidden link

I've tried the code you suggested and I'm still getting the same output.

Ok I got the issue now, please use this updated shortcode and it will work fine:

 <a href="[types field='link' output='raw'][/types]" target='_blank'>[types field='source-name'][/types]</a> 

Thank you
