Hello GeoDirectory,

Theme: GD Modern

I am using the Custom Form Field “File Upload” to place a link in the sidebar for a restaurants menu (PDF only). I get it to work no problem, I was wondering if it is easily possible to have a default link name show instead of the name of the file itself (and the added part of the name that GD adds on)? Something like “Click Here for Our Menu” vs 1235_geodir_menu_link_Test_Menu_Upload.pdf

Please see attached image as to what I am referring to if I did not explain very well.

I only changed the image to show “Click Here for Our Menu” while using browsers Inspect Element.

I thank you in advance for any help or information you can forward.

Hi,

please try this in your theme functions.php file :
```
// Replace 'menu' in "geodir_show_geodir_menu" with the html varibale of your custom field
add_filter("geodir_show_geodir_menu","myTheme_change_menu_title", 10,2);
function myTheme_change_menu_title($html, $variables_array){
  if($parts = explode('target="_blank">',$html)){
    $html = $parts[0].'target="_blank">Click Here for Our Menu</a></div></div>';
  }
return $html;
}
```
Let us know,

Thanks

I was subscribed to this for just that snippet

Will this be incorporated into the next release?

Hi,

This is a snippet that can be added to your functions.php to modify the link anchor text of custom fields (between other things) using a built in GD hook.

It already works.

Thanks
