[Plugin: Gravity Forms Directory & Addons] "back to directory" link on entry details p

Yes, it removed the link if you leave it blank. I believe that shortcode just lets you remove or rename the link. But it doesn’t resolve the issue of the link actually not working.

Anyone come up with a solution?

FWIW, i’m still using a jQuery workaround to make the link point to the correct place. This code assumes your entries slug is “entry”, you’ll have to change this snippet if yours is different.

<script type="text/javascript"><!--
jQuery(function($) {
    // this hack fixes a bug in the gravity directory plugin that breaks the back to directory links
    $('.entryback a').attr('href',function(i,href){ return href.slice(0,href.indexOf("/entry")); });
});
//--></script>

Hope this helps somebody else!

@ tmuka. Where exactly do I add this snippet of code? In the meantime, I will try a few things. Thanks in advance.

@bigshoeinc, put the code above in your page that has the directory shortcode. I went into HTML mode and posted the code at the top of my page. Thanks @tmuka for the solutions.

You wouldn’t happen to have a work around for the problem with users editing their own entry?

Thanks,
DJ

Thanks DJ for clearing that up for me. Perfect.

I have the same problem with the back link. I use permalinks and the back link goes no where. ??

@tmuka — Thanks, that basically worked for me. I just added that JS to my header.php file, and changed the “$” to “jQuery”, so it became

jQuery(document).ready(function(){
	jQuery('.entryback a').attr('href',function(i,href){
		return href.slice(0,href.indexOf("/entry"));
	});
});

glad that helped!
