[Support request] Dynamic Link is not working as expected

[Scott]

Hi,
The Dynamic Link is not working in 2 different circumstances when URL is retrieved from a term_meta field:

a) When I use The Dynamic Data feature in a HEADLINE block, the term_meta field appears in Dynamic Link options, but when I check the front-end result, the generated link has the previous term_meta field value (Content. ex. href=”text20%of20%previous20%field”>).

HTML result(see link): https://imageup.me/2tx

b) When I use The Dynamic Data feature in a CONTAINER block as in this link (https://docs.generatepress.com/article/dynamic-data/#dynamic-background), the term_meta field doesn’t appear in Dynamic Link options.

What is your suggestion to make it work in both circumstances?

Thanks

Hi Scott,

What the term mata value should be? And what’s the term? If it’s a custom term, how did you set up the term?

Let me know!

Hi, Jing.
The term is Category. And all the term_meta are set via ACF. The first term_meta is working as expected “bubble_message”, but the other, “bubble_url” is not. In the following images, you can see the settings and the HTML result (pay attention to the link in the code). It shows the text from the “bubble_message” term_meta and should show the URL from the “bubble_url” term_meta.

I can replicate the issue on my end.

I will forward this to Tom.

Hi there,

Thanks for reporting this – we’ve fixed it in GPP 2.2.0.

For now, you can make the following change if you’d like:

1. Open wp-content/plugins/gp-premium/elements/class-block-elements.php
2. On line 598, replace gpDynamicTextCustomField with gpDynamicLinkCustomField.

Hope this helps! 🙂
