In a RSForm Pro! form directory listing, I just want to create a link to view a submission. For instance, I have a directory of Jobs, and I just want to create a link under the Position Title to view that submission. I know I need to use the {global:submissionId} somehow.

in the directory PHP scripts section, I figured out how to add the ID column next to the Position Title using the following, but how can I just create a link under Position Title to view the submission?

$pattern = '#directoryColSubmissionid">.*?</td>#';
if (preg_match_all($pattern, $directoryLayout, $matches)){
foreach ($matches[0] as $i => $fullMatch){
$shrink = substr($fullMatch, 0, -5);
$string = explode(">",$shrink);
$yourHref = $string[0].'><a href="/jobs/submission-view/'.$string[1].'">'.$string[1].'</a></td>';
$directoryLayout = str_replace($fullMatch, $yourHref , $directoryLayout);
}
}

$pattern = '#directoryColPositiontitle">.*?</td>#';
if (preg_match_all($pattern, $directoryLayout, $matches)){
foreach ($matches[0] as $i => $fullMatch){
$shrink = substr($fullMatch, 0, -5);
$string = explode(">",$shrink);
$yourHref = $string[0].'><b>'.$string[1].'</b></td>';
$directoryLayout = str_replace($fullMatch, $yourHref , $directoryLayout);
}
}

Thanks!

Hello,

The best course of action would be to create a template override for the directly listing and add the link to your desired field value. You will need to create a template override for the \components\com_rsform\views\directory\tmpl\default_layout.php file.

You can already find the script that generates the link to the submission details in the layout for the "View" icon so you only need to copy this over.

<a class="<?php echo $this->tooltipClass; ?> directoryDetail" title="<?php echo RSFormProHelper::getTooltipText(JText::_('RSFP_SUBM_DIR_VIEW')); ?>" href="<?php echo JRoute::_('index.php?option=com_rsform&view=directory&layout=view&id='.$item->SubmissionId); ?>">
<span class="rsficon rsficon-zoom-in"></span>
</a>

This should provide a good starting point for your scenario.
