Darren Rose Posted September 21, 2018 Posted September 21, 2018 Hello In Project Manager, would it be possible to add a section for links, a bit like bookmarks. Our Project documentation managed in sharepoint, and it would be great to be able to add links to external locations within a project. If it was one of the options in the right hand panel by attachments for example, that would be ideal? If we could add default links to the project templates that would be good too. Thanks Darren
AlexTumber Posted September 21, 2018 Posted September 21, 2018 @Darren Rose thanks for your post. I'll feed this back to our product and development teams Alex 1
Darren Rose Posted September 21, 2018 Author Posted September 21, 2018 thanks, @alextumber It would be a really useful addition. We use a number of external references - PowerBI dashboards etc... - that would be ideal as project related links, making the whole process far more efficient 1
AlexTumber Posted September 24, 2018 Posted September 24, 2018 @Darren Rose I'm pleased to say that Project Links will be included in the next Project Manager update. Looking forward to hearing your feedback :-) Alex 2
Darren Rose Posted September 25, 2018 Author Posted September 25, 2018 Very pleased about that, thanks @AlexTumber 2
Darren Rose Posted September 25, 2018 Author Posted September 25, 2018 @AlexTumber I just applied the update and added a test link, but it's not not working. When clicking on the link, the link is added to the address of our instance https://live.hornbill.com/vinci/www.bbc.co.uk/
AlexTumber Posted September 25, 2018 Posted September 25, 2018 @Darren Rose you'll need the full url path, e.g. https://www.bbc.co.uk Alex 1
Nikolaj Posted September 26, 2018 Posted September 26, 2018 @AlexTumber Hi Alex, Good feature https is working fine. But I have a little feature request to this topic. would it be possible to add a link to a shared folder? like this here: That would be very good. Thanks Nikolaj
AlexTumber Posted September 26, 2018 Posted September 26, 2018 @Nikolaj after speaking with our dev team I can confirm the following:file:// is blocked by default by Angular due to security reasons. In our case, because this is an online service (not intranet) the link will not work unless you are in the same network. So unfortunately only links that start with https:// or http:// are clickable. I appreciate it's a few extra clicks, but a workaround is to open the project link dialog box, copy the full link (file://) and paste it into your browser url bar. This will work for you because your are logged on to your internal network. Alex
