[EP-tech] ScreenProcessor.pm and Admin Screen Messages

[John Salter]

Hi James,
I think you've got all the right parts - you just need to join them all together:
- create the link
- create the text
- append the text to the link
- append the link to the message

Cheers,
John

Subject: [EP-tech] ScreenProcessor.pm and Admin Screen Messages

Hi All,

I have a button on the admin screen that does something when clicked. Then at the top of the screen a message appears upon completion to provide a url for the user to follow (or that is the plan). It usually present a plain text message, but I want a clickable link. At the moment users would need to copy the message text and paste it into the address bar.

At the moment I can have either text or a link that can't be seen or clicked, but shows up when you inspect the page.

Here is my code that I've adapted (only the bit in bold is really relevant):

sub add_result_message
{
        my( $self, $ok ) = @_;

        if( $ok )
        {
                #$self->{processor}->add_message( "message",
                        #$self->html_phrase( "aam_link" ) );
#$self->{processor}->add_message(
#"message",
#$self->{repository}->make_text( "Please go to https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=www.google.co.uk&amp;data=01%7C01%7Ceprints-tech%40ecs.soton.ac.uk%7C3134cadc840144658f7408d71fbe1c67%7C4a5378f929f44d3ebe89669d03ada9d8%7C0&amp;sdata=4gQKo5qRIxQoKHBiIhl%2B81tf9Tam1iWxHp%2BXW7kwE0g%3D&amp;reserved=0<https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.co.uk&amp;data=01%7C01%7Ceprints-tech%40ecs.soton.ac.uk%7C3134cadc840144658f7408d71fbe1c67%7C4a5378f929f44d3ebe89669d03ada9d8%7C0&amp;sdata=iw%2B3XByh7O2JyFUz81OmntM609dtLDK6zS2UHLUvxXM%3D&amp;reserved=0> to access the AAM Updates.")
#);
#my $messagelink =
my $uri = "https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=www.google.co.uk&amp;data=01%7C01%7Ceprints-tech%40ecs.soton.ac.uk%7C3134cadc840144658f7408d71fbe1c67%7C4a5378f929f44d3ebe89669d03ada9d8%7C0&amp;sdata=4gQKo5qRIxQoKHBiIhl%2B81tf9Tam1iWxHp%2BXW7kwE0g%3D&amp;reserved=0<https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.co.uk&amp;data=01%7C01%7Ceprints-tech%40ecs.soton.ac.uk%7C3134cadc840144658f7408d71fbe1c67%7C4a5378f929f44d3ebe89669d03ada9d8%7C0&amp;sdata=iw%2B3XByh7O2JyFUz81OmntM609dtLDK6zS2UHLUvxXM%3D&amp;reserved=0>";
$self->{processor}->add_message( "message",
$self->{repository}->make_text(
$self->{session}->render_link( $uri ))
);
        }


Is there a way that I can alter this to show a clickable text link or am I going to need to go further down the EPrints Rabbit Hole? My alternative approach is to alter render_messages in ScreenProcessor.pm, but I don't really want to do that and I also don't know how to make a local archive copy of this file either as it's a few levels up from the plugins directory.

Any suggestions or alternative approaches are very welcome.

Thanks,
James
