automatically add a string to an url in a button

Hi,

I have a GP block element that is showed at the end of about 50 pages.

In this element there is a button. I need this url to point to another website of mine to a specific page, based on the source page.

For example:
domain1/page1 -> domain2/page1
domain1/page2 -> domain2/page2
etc

I am not a programmer, I have thougt that
the button could have a shortcode (or a string anyway) in the url and this string is replaced by a snippet

The url is simply made of 2 parts: static (= domain2/ ) and dynamic (page1, page2 etc)

If I could take the second part either:
- from the url of the page in domain1 (domain1/page1) provided that the 2 sites shares exactly the same page slug
- or from a custom field I can set in each domain1 page

Any idea how I achieve this? :)

Thank you All the best

Hi Carlo,

I feel like this would require a custom solution and don't think GB would be suitable for it.

I would recommend posting the question on a WordPress general forum like this to see if anyone has some ideas on how to achieve it:

If not then you might need to contact a developer on Codable to create a custom solution for you (see the bottom of this page):

Hope this helps to get you started.

Hi Leo,

thank you anyway. I solved it integrating some code here and there :)

Glad to hear :)
