Links to other detail pages in overview - zelpi - 2024-10-29

I would like to create a link in an overview description of a movie profile, that leads to another movie profile in the local database, e.g. a sequel.

Can such local links be inserted? I noticed, that at least simple html works in that overview field.

As there’s no reaction on my issue I searched and found this link, which may help for those who are interested:

Both markdown and (basic-)HTML is supported in the item descriptions so yes you can add a URL.

And what about local links to another movie page in my library? How would then be the code?

Just take the link from the browser and add it, so it would be something like:

Code:
<a href="/web/#/details?id=32158a5703d8212eacf2ce782b10f10a">Sample Text</a>

Thanks for the quick answer. I will try.

Ok, I tested the linking. Unfortunately, it links to the browser web page of Jellyfin. I expected that, but my real intention is, to stay within the client I use (Jellyfin Media Player), when I click on the link. Is that possible?

How did you do it. Could you provide a detailed guide (i am struggling with it right now)

<a href=" "> and creates linked text

</a> ends the linked text, so:

<a href="www.google.com"> Click This! </a> 

makes "Click This!" link to google .com

If you want to link to a movie in your library, find its address, for example:

http:192.168.1.69:8096/web/index.html#/details?id=0a300daf2cf27d0a68b13b9c1&context=home&serverId=0ee1d67d387db1e0b5f8bdde7

and put it in the href quotes

<a href="/web/index.html#/details?id=0a300daf2cf27d0a68b13b9c1">Click This!</a>

I got/did all of that and i want the link to redirect to a page outside of jellyfin.

the issue is that i don't see the link in the description/overview sections. So is there a certain way you set up your jellyfin or even create the .nfo file?

I was eventually creating the nfo(s) my self until i saw one nfo saved by jellyfin. And even after editing that i got nothing. I feel like my approach is completely wrong.
