Come together with the global Drupal community in Rotterdam, 28 Sept – 1 Oct 2026. Sessions, contribution, connection, and Early Bird savings until 8 June.
I've read that the "link" field in drupal 7 is called "link_field" but even after making this change, the problem is not solved. Maybe someone knows where to go from here?
I have no idea, but I am in DIRE need of this to be fixed! ... it's probably something simple. I can't believe more people aren't reporting the problem...
I now see that when I click on "convert" it says the current value for my link field is ";" which is not true. I go back and edit the original document to be converted and the links are saved just fine.

brandy.brown commentedIs there any progress on this? ... kind of makes the module useless if links don't translate. I would fix it, but I'm not that smart:)

Comment #5
auraell commentedI believe the error is somewhere in the following chunk of code:
elseif ($field['type'] == "link") {
$value = $field_values[0]['url'] . " ; " . $field_values[0]['title'];

alcroito commentedThe dev version of 7.x contains a fix for the link module, or if you prefer you can apply the attached patch.
I haven't thoroughly tested it yet, but a simple conversion of a node type containing a link, to another node type containing a link seems to work.
