MAKE ICONBOX A LINK IN SHUFFLEHOUND CODE
This HTML code will be used to display a hyperlink button.Click value, and then click the ellipsis button, which brings up the String Builder screen.Click field, and pick the name of the Dashboard column you just created.Add the action called Set Field in current Item.
In this case I’ll call mine “New Traveler” and set it to run when new items are created. Open your site in SharePoint Designer.I also created a little graphic, Dashboard.png, and uploaded it to my site’s Site Assets library.So the link will pass a query string parameter to the web part page, which will send filter information to web parts on that page. There are many different types of scenarios, but in this example, I have another page in my site that I’m using as a dashboard, and I want the link to take users to the dashboard for that specific traveler. The workflow will create the hyperlink and place the hyperlinked image in this new column when a new item is created. Pick your new column you just created, like “Dashboard”, add it, and click OK.The next step is going to be to create a workflow.Go to list/library settings, scroll down and click Add from existing site columns. Now that your site column exists, go ahead and add it to the list or library where you want to use it.Be sure and leave the default type of text as Enhanced rich text.The trick here, is that you’re going to choose Multiple lines of text as the type of column. Create your column, whatever you want it to be called.Go to the list where you’d like this new column to show, and go to List Settings.Now, there’s no way I’m the first person to think of this, but I’ve just discovered a very easy way to create a pretty, custom hyperlink button that shows on your list items and on each row. In the current versions of SharePoint, it’s just not as straightforward.
Also, back when data view web parts and editing views in SharePoint Designer was possible (in 2007/2010), I used to directly edit views visually, and create pretty little buttons all the time, that I would put in rows and make them dynamic, such as a button to take you to some special dashboard or filtered view. All of those are options available out-of-box. AND, there’s a way to create a custom action in SharePoint Designer, which puts a button in the ribbon or in the list item drop-down menu. Also, there’s a way to create a hyperlink column, which is useful for having a custom link. Out of box, there’s a column called “Edit”, and you can add that to your view, and it gives you a quick way to get to the edit page with just one click. Have you ever wanted to have a nice pretty button, right on the row of one of your list or library items in SharePoint, and that button does something custom?
