Link pane title to view doesn't work (sometimes)

Description

Hi,

I still have to dig a little deeper, but I added a view pane for a related photo's page.
The pane takes two taxonomy id's and gives one random pic back.
The pic is linked to the node.
The title I wanted to link to the view page, which also takes the same two terms, but as 'name's converted to id's'.
However there is no link, just the title as it was named in views.

When I add the pane as a normal views object, I can link the title to the view.
But then when I want to override the title url, it doesn't take the %keywords and always adds the term id's as arguments.

Like I said, I will test some more, but thought of launching an issue anyway.

Thx,
Koen

I've been examining this issue some further, and suppose it belongs to chaos tools project.

View panes, just don't take the right arguments. If I choose get the arguments from context and want to bundle all the arguments together separated by , or +, the pane isn't even showing up in panels. If I choose to give the id's manually, the pane does at its suppose to. If I use the pane as a view object I can edit each term from context, but cannot combine them.
Looking at ctools I noticed the arguments are prepared within the plugins. In this case I wanted to combine two terms from two different vocabularies and thus two differnt context items with a '+'. Each vocab just gives one term per page. If this fails no pane is shown.

As for the title, I suspect something of the same as well. Because I'm playing with the vocab arguments in a different way than the view page. The original link for the title gets disregarded somewhere.

I must say this is by far the most complicated module I've been looking at, apart from views. Nevertheless, they're extremly helpfull in creating what you want as fast as possible.

thx

Can you please boil this down into a more concise list of steps to reproduce the behavior you're seeing? I'm having trouble following both what's wrong and what exactly you're doing, especially since you discuss several different scenarios. In order to help I need to be able to quickly reproduce the problem.

I can confirm this behaviour but only for some panes. I spent half an hour to detect what kind of panes exactly doesn't create the link to the view but failed to make out a pattern.

I have some rotor blocks as panes where it works and some don't. Same goes for views slideshows. Displayed as block or content pane doesn't make the difference. Works with some old views but not with a newly created one.

If I can come up with something more specific I will report back.

sorry

Just to clarify: I didn't try to accomplish anything fancy just simply wanted the pane title linked to the view on a panel page with a couple of panes.
