Allow for custom links to be added [#999794]

So, I'm looking to combine http://drupal.org/project/colorbox and Nivo Slider. When I click on an image, the image will popup in a colorbox.

Problem is the rendering of the link only works for node link-type fields.

The following patch allows me to assign a "custom link" to the link for the slider.

Example of usage:
- I have a View that displays the Images from a node
- Added a field "Global: Custom text", added the custom path/classes, and now when I click on the image in the Nivo Slider, I can open up a link to the image on display

Also, this patch makes some fixes in views-nivo-slider-view.tpl.php that caused some errors/warnings to occur.

Thanks!

This works whenever "Link this field to its node" or "Output this field as a link" is checked. But those options don't allow me to set the rel attribute I need for lightbox. It would be nice to also allow custom links.

Can't find the code to change in views-nivo-slider-view.tpl.php.

First of all thank you for your work.

If I may I would like to have one request could you do it for lightbox trigger and colorbox trigger fields ?

Updating this for Drupal 7. Also including a test view.

This view is setup to:
- Present the images of a node, the node having a multi-value image field
- There is a Nivo Slider powered slideshow
- Clicking on an image in the slideshow will open the image (the image style can be configured in Views) in a Colorbox.
