Linkit plugin for Craft
=======================

[](#linkit-plugin-for-craft)

One link field to replace them all, a multi-purpose link fieldtype for Craft CMS.

This plugin adds a fieldtype which links to all sorts of stuff, Linkit can currently link to:

- Entries
- Assets
- Categories
- Emails
- Phone numbers
- Custom URLs

And it plays really nicely with Matrix!

Field settings allow you to:

- Configure what elements each field can link too.
- Set which entry/asset sources are available to each field.
- Allow fields to set custom link text.
- Allow fields to set links to open in new window.
- Set default link text.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

To install Linkit, follow these steps:

1. Upload the linkit/ folder to your craft/plugins/ folder.
2. Go to Settings > Plugins from your Craft control panel and enable the Linkit plugin.
3. Create and configure a new linkit field.

Template Usage
--------------

[](#template-usage)

Get the link object:

```
{% set yourLink = entry.yourLinkFieldHandle %}

```

Just the link - output a pre built HTML link:

```
{{ yourLink.link|raw }}

```

Build a simple custom link:

```
{{ yourLink.linkText }}

```

Build your own:

```
{% switch yourLink.type %}

    {% case "entry" %}

		{{ yourLink.entry.title }}

    {% case "category" %}

		{{ yourLink.category.title }}

    {% case "asset" %}

			{% if yourLink.asset.kind == 'image' %}

			{% else %}

			{% endif %}

    {% case "custom" %}

			 {{ yourLink.linkText }}

    {% case "email" %}

		{{ yourLink.email }}

    {% case "tel" %}

		{{ yourLink.tel }}

{% endswitch %}

```

Template Variables
------------------

[](#template-variables)

Each link returns a link object which contains the following:

```
{% set yourLink = entry.yourLinkFieldHandle %} // Get the link

{{ yourLink.type }} // Returns the link type - entry, asset, email, tel, custom

{{ yourLink.email }}  	// Email String / False
{{ yourLink.custom }} 	// Custom URL String / False
{{ yourLink.tel }}		// Telephone Number / False
{{ yourLink.entry }}	// Entry Object / False
{{ yourLink.category }}	// Category Object / False
{{ yourLink.asset }}	// Asset Object / False
// Each link type is returned - only the active type will return data the rest return false

{{ yourLink.text }} 	// The Custom Text String
{{ yourLink.target }}   // True/False (Bool) - Open in new window?

{{ yourLink.url }}		// The full url (correct prefix added eg mailto: or tel:)
{{ yourLink.linkText }} // The link text string ready to use (If no custom text is provided it generates it based on the link type)

{{ yourLink.link }}		// Full link HTML ready to use

```
