Direct link to file or external link

[library_addict]

Hello!

So I can already directly link a book to its file as stated here:
http://forum.voxpopulix.org/supporto-%28support%29/direct-link-to-a-book/msg1984/#msg1984

But what I need is: if a book has a file, clicking on its name will direct me to the file. if it doesn't have a file but has a link, clicking on the book's name will direct me to the link. if it does not have both, there will be no link.

You have to modify two files:

your_site/components/com_abook/views/category/tmpl/default_items.php line 87
from:

Code Select Expand

<?php $linkbook=JRoute::_(AbookHelperRoute::getBookRoute($item->slug, $item->slugcat));?>

to:

Code Select Expand

<?php $linkbook=$item->image;?>


your_site/components/com_abook/views/search/tmpl/default_items.php line 40
from:

Code Select Expand

<?php $linkbook=JRoute::_(AbookHelperRoute::getBookRoute($item->slug, $item->slugcat));?>
to:

Code Select Expand

<?php $linkbook=$item->image;?>
