Come together with the global Drupal community in Rotterdam, 28 Sept – 1 Oct 2026. Sessions, contribution, connection, and Early Bird savings until 8 June.After upgrading to 2.9 the mentioned behaviour doesn't work anymore for an imagefield.
Workaround is to "Rewrite the output of this field" and to add the link manually.
To reproduce:
- Make new view (viewtype node)
- Choose a field (Node title)
- Select "Output this field as a link"
- Enter "" as link path
- Preview! No link shows up
- Enter another path (eg "test")
- Preview! Link to "test" shows up
Is this by design now?
cheers, Ronald

dawehnerThere was a feature request, that if you enter to linkpath, it should be displayed as text.
IF you want to link to the frontpage you can use
Comment #2
rokrIn the description above something got lost.
'Enter "" as link path' means 'Enter "
<front>" as link path'@dereine: "you can use" ...?
cheers, rokr

merlinofchaos commentedHm. Maybe the
<front>check is happening *prior* to the empty path check? And we need to move it?Comment #4
dawehnerNo this cannot be. Front is translated in url()
Comment #5
rokrAttached is an exported view as requested by dereine.
It exactly represents the steps above to reproduce the behaviour.
