Home-made groups and auto-linking problem

Hi mikolajek,

There is currently no way to do this by using the built in options. However I did come up with a workaround.

If you set any links that you do not want to go anywhere to ‘http://test.loc’ and add this filter to your theme’s functions.php file, it should have the desired result.

add_filter('simple_links_widget_output', 'sl_unlink_headers');
function sl_unlink_headers($content){
   return str_replace('http://test.loc', '#', $content);
}

I have added the featured to the list of possible future plugin releases.

Hope this helps.

Cheers.

HI mikolajek,

I added a couple new filters and released version 1.8.0 to allow for direct link filtering and to prepare for the future version.

Please update to version 1.8.0 and then you may use this filter to remove the linking from the links set to http://test.loc

add_filter( 'simple_links_widget_link_output', 'sl_remove_header_links', 1, 4);
function sl_remove_header_links( $link_output, $meta, $link, $image ){
        if( $meta['web_address'][0] != 'http://test.loc') return $link_output;

        return $link->post_title;
}

Hope this helps.

Cheers
