By using the "Link Attributes" module, users can add custom attributes to their links, providing more control over how links behave and appear. This setup involves a user interface with two main tabs: "Display" and "Content".
Display Tab: The Display tab is geared towards styling and layout options, allowing users to customize the visual appearance of their link bundles. The fields under this tab include:
- Background Color: This option lets you pick a color for the background area of your paragraph. It's like choosing a paint color for the wall behind your text.
- Background Color Hover: This is a fun feature! When you move your mouse cursor over the paragraph, the background color changes to the color you pick here. It's like a magic trick for your paragraph!
- Text Color: Here, you can decide what color the words in your paragraph will be. It's like selecting the ink color for writing your paragraph.
- Text Color Hover: Similar to the background hover, this changes the text color when you hover your mouse over the paragraph. Imagine the text changing color like a chameleon when you move your mouse over it.
- Border Color: This option lets you choose a color for a thin line that surrounds your paragraph, like framing a picture.
- Border Color Hover: When you hover your mouse over the paragraph, the border color changes to what you choose here. It's another way to make your paragraph interactive and eye-catching.
- Border: In this section, you have the option to choose from 11 solid line styles, each varying in thickness, for your paragraph's border.
- Border Radius: This option allows you to round the corners of your paragraph's border. You have 6 styles to choose from, ranging from slightly rounded to completely circular corners.
- Margin: This sets the space between your paragraph and other elements on the page. You can choose from 6 options to determine how much space you want around your paragraph.
- Padding: Padding is the space between your text and the border of the paragraph. This option gives you 8 choices to decide how much space you want inside the border.
- Max Width: This lets you control how wide your paragraph can be. You can choose from 7 different widths in pixels, or set it to 100% which will make the paragraph stretch as wide as its container allows.
- Box Shadow: You have 2 options here to add a shadow effect to your paragraph. This makes it look like your paragraph is slightly raised above the page, giving it some depth.
- Background Color Opacity: This is a slider that lets you adjust how see-through the background color is. Sliding it down makes the background more transparent, allowing whatever is behind it to show through a bit.
Content Tab: The Content tab is where users can input and manage the content of their link bundles.
- Title: This is for the main hero title of the link bundle.
- Paragraph Field (Link Section): Here, users can add an unlimited number of paragraph bundles, each named 'Link Section'. Within each Link Section, there are three crucial fields:
- Title: For naming the individual link.
- URL Field: To input the hyperlink destination.
- Link Text: To add a display title or text for the link.
Additionally, each link in the Link Section can be enhanced with several attributes, providing greater control and customization. These attributes include:
- Target: Such as _blank for opening the link in a new tab.
- Rel: Relationship attribute, like "noopener" for security purposes.
- Class: CSS class for styling the link with predefined styles.
- Other attributes as needed for specific link behaviors or styles.
Implementation: To implement this setup in Drupal:
- Install the Link Attributes Module: This module is essential for adding custom attributes to your links.
- Create a Paragraph Type: This will be your Link Section, where you can add fields for the link title, URL, and link text.
- Add Display and Content Fields: Configure the fields as per the requirements in the Display and Content tabs.
Conclusion: This Drupal setup, using a paragraph bundle with the Link Attributes module, offers a dynamic and versatile way to manage and display links on a website. By separating display and content aspects, it ensures both aesthetic appeal and functional richness, allowing for a highly customized and user-friendly interface.
