click title to original url

I’m interested in the same thing. If there’s a code available to use in page template, even better (meaning code to put in a href that redirects to original content).

Hi Folks,

Thank you very much for reaching out. There’s a template parameter for that: {$permalink} is the parameter, simply add it to the appropriate section and position for the original link to be added. It will add the original article title anchor with the link.

Good morning feedsapi,
thank you for fast reply.

Excuse my questions but i am a fresher on this.
what do you mean when you say appropriate section and position ?
is there a file that we can add this like app/class-rss-post-importer.php
or
by template parameter you mean the template text box in the options menu (which has the {$content}
Source: {$feed_title}
) ?
Thanks in advance.

by template parameter you mean the template text box in the options menu (which has the {$content}
Source: {$feed_title}
) ?

Yes, and that’s where you need to paste the {$permalink} parameter, that’s the appropriate section. Appropriate position means, if you paste it as last parameter, your anchor+llink will appear at last (after the other parameters content) , if it’sit’s first ….anchor+link are first in your final imported article and so on: That’s what I mean with appropriate position. You are welcome. ?? I hope this could help.

Hi feedsapi,

Sound great, but is there a template tag available for me to use straight in my loop/page template?

Cheers!

Indeed this creates the link inside my article. Whenever i click on it it will take me the original post.

My bad. I didn’t quite explain what i am looking for.

I would like to add the link (this is what is happening now) not inside the created post.
When the plugin creates a post, i can then see it in a page (thats being created from the category that contains the article).

What i am trying to achieve is during the creation of article to set the url of the title of the post ( and not the context inside the post).
this is useful for visitors as they click on the title and get redirected to the original article in (new page).

This function is done manually by the WordPress by using the “Page Links To” plugin.
Admin may substitute the url of any post or page (linked in wordpress) with the original one; the one that hosts the original article.
so users click on the article and get redirected to the original url in a new tab.

This is why i ve been confused about it.

Hope that explains what the scenario is and i am not a pain….

Thanks again for your time effort and fast support.

@tiedemies , please watch this very short video tutorial: https://vimeo.com/113796278 it explains pretty much how the plugin works regarding the template parameters.

@Alexandrodoul , thank you for clarifying, we’ve not yet implemented this workflow and it’s not on our roadmap at the moment, but I’ll add it on the roadmap.

Thanks,

thank you very much.
:-))))

You are very welcome, ?? and thanks a lot for the nice review. We will keep up the good work. ??

feedsapi I’ve checked the video, but what I am referring to is this scenario:

Let’s say I have a WordPress page template that lists my blog posts by their titles (those posts are created by RSS Post Importer). When I click on the titles I get directed to the original source instead of the post I have on my blog.

Is that possible?

@tiedemies , We unfortunately don’t yet have this workflow as you described. It’s similar to the workflow of Alex, and it’s now on our roadmap.

feedsapi Ok, thanks for clearing that up.
