Is it possible to set any attributes (such as a class) of the `a` tag when using `getLink()`?

Question

This code:

{{ foo.getLink() }}

Outputs this:

<a href="URL_HERE">NAME_OF_PAGE</a>

What I really want is something like:

<a href="URL_HERE" class="bar">NAME_OF_PAGE</a>

Is it possible to set "class" and/or other html attributes when using Craft CMS Entry Property getLink()?

Answer 1

No, getLink outputs a very simple version of the link.

If you want something more complex, you'll need to build it manually...

<a href="{{ foo.url }}" class="bar">{{ foo.title }}</a>

Answer 2

Try LinkIt. Allows you to set attributes. https://github.com/fruitstudios/LinkIt/blob/master/README.md
