Hide URL in all places

[minnesotaIM]

I have two questions:

1. How do I hide the Listing URL in all visible areas of the directory. I hand modified view-link.tpl and also modified the listing URL to off in the admin panel but it still shows up when I click on any of the categories, the top links, popular links, etc. The only place it seemed to hide from was the view details page. Is there a global way to rid the visibility of this field?

2. I would also like to hide the URL from appearing in the status bar when a mouse rollover the link to website.

Your help is appreciated

Hi Dave,
I read the entire thread and followed your most recent instructions, 4/2/07 I believe. I did the process twice but this did not delete the URL in various places. I'm not sure why it's not working, your directions were precise and I followed them to the tee.

Hi minnesotaIM,
Did you add new Urls for those links in admin panel?

[minnesotaIM]

you mean i have to go into the listings, delete the URL's the resave with the same URL?

I did put in http:// for the add new field step but I didn't modify the existing listings.

oh never mind, i found what you meant and all is working well. One quick question, the mod keeps the affiliate URL from showing in the status bar when moused over but not when the link is clicked - is there anyway to keep it from showing even when it's clicked?

Thanks Dave.

Try to add one more event onClick to your new code.
***In the replaced code find this event:***

onMouseOver="window.status='{if $link.display_url neq 'http://'}{$link.display_url}{else}{$link.url}{/if}'; return true"

*** after add:***

onclick="window.status='{if $link.display_url neq 'http://'}{$link.display_url}{else}{$link.url}{/if}'; return true"

for ex:
in templates/youTemplate/link-display.tpl your code should looks like this:

<div class="title">{if $link.crossed}@{/if} <a href="{$link.url}" class="title" id="l{$link.id}" {if $config.new_window}target="_blank"{/if} onMouseOver="window.status='{if $link.display_url neq 'http://'}{$link.display_url}{else}{$link.url}{/if}'; return true" onclick="window.status='{if $link.display_url neq 'http://'}{$link.display_url}{else}{$link.url}{/if}'; return true" onMouseOut="window.status=''; return true">{if $config.html_tags}{$link.title}{else}{$link.title| escape:"html"}{/if}</a>
{section name=star loop=$link.rank}<img src="{$img}star.png" alt="" />{/section}
</div>

Hello visoxcom,
Try it:

<div class="title">{if $link.crossed}@{/if} <a href="{$link.url}" class="title" id="l{$link.id}" {if $config.new_window}target="_blank"{/if} onMouseOver="window.status='{if $link.display_url neq 'http://'}{$link.display_url}{else}{$link.url}{/if}'; return true" onfocus="window.status='{if $link.display_url neq 'http://'}{$link.display_url}{else}{$link.url}{/if}'; return true" onMouseOut="window.status=''; return true">{if $config.html_tags}{$link.title}{else}{$link.title| escape:"html"}{/if}</a>
{section name=star loop=$link.rank}<img src="{$img}star.png" alt="" />{/section}
</div>

Or just change event "onclick" with "onfocus" :)

In the View Listing section using the affiliates link module how can I enable clicking the picture to use the affiliate link while it still displays the target website in the picture? Right now the picture can not be clicked. It's static but it does show the destination website. I uploaded the affiliate module. I am using the latest version.
