Link a Category to another url

https://actiontec.zendesk.com

@Mike - Can you make sure that you have the code in place and which category are you trying to link.

It is the category titled CMS

@Mike - Is that category hidden as I don't see it from my end.

Should be visible now I just reorder them so it should be the second on in the list now. 

@Mike - I see it now, can you remove my code and let me play around with the URL

Done

@Mike - I have a live chat widget enabled here.  To speed things up can we chat there and then I can post back the solution as the code is interferring with the code that you have in place for your images.

@Mike give this a try.

$('a').each(function() {
var value = $(this).attr('href');
if(value=='/hc/en-us/categories/200108526-Technical')
{
$(this).attr('href', 'http://google.com');
$('ul.category-list > li > a[href*="201274123"]').prepend($ScreenBeamCMS + "<br />");
}
});

Remove the code at the bottom of your script starting on line 129.

Wes,

Your the best thanks for the help once again

Hi Mike,

I'm trying to link a section to a URL that link a pdf in our cms.

I was trying to use the code below but didn't work:

$(document).ready(function() {:

//Point Category to external link

$("ul.section-list li a:contains('Developer Guidelines')").replaceWith('<a href="http://flowsystems.com.au/governance/Land_Housing/Developer_Infrastructure_Works_Guidelines.pdf">Developer Guidelines</a> ');

Can you help me please?

Thank you

Ciro, 

Wes is the one who gave me the help on making this work. He might be able to answer your question better than I.

Hi Wes, 

can you help me with that?

I'm trying to link a section to a URL that link a pdf in our cms.

I was trying to use the code below but didn't work:

$(document).ready(function() {:

//Point Category to external link

$("ul.section-list li a:contains('Developer Guidelines')").replaceWith('<a href="http://flowsystems.com.au/governance/Land_Housing/Developer_Infrastructure_Works_Guidelines.pdf">DeveloperGuidelines</a> ');

Thank you 

Ciro

@Ciro - Am I able to get to your HC if so please provide a link and have the code in place.  Also there shouldn't be a semi ":" after your $(document).ready(function() {

@Wes, 

Here the HC: https://askus.flowsystems.com.au/hc/admin/appearance#editor

The code is at the end of the js section.

thank you very much

@Ciro - It looks like you have some kind of mobile re-direct so I'm unable to see the full Help Center site.  I can't be of much help unless I can see your Help Center.  Its best to make your site responsive and get rid of the mobile as you can't really edit the mobile version with CSS or JS. 

I have the same question as Kristen, but didn't see any resolution posted for her.

I want a section container to link to a specified URL.

I am using the Copenhagen theme.

Please help!

@Kimberly - You want a section to point to a specified URL from the Home Page or Category Page or both.

@Wes

The homepage – our sections are kind of displayed like categories.

You can actually do this now with the curlybar framework which I would recommend using instead of JQUERY.  I have similar code here but we could do something very similar with the sections.  Give me a little more details and I'll see what I can do.l

Great! Thanks so much! You can email me if that would be easier.

@Kimberly - Can you join my SLACK channel and post your Home Page code and let me know what section you are wanting to point to what URL.

Once we are done I'll post back the final code revision here for everyone's benefit that way we don't junk up the community with a bunch of code snippets.

Hi Wes Drury,

I am facing a similar error, but I am not able to redirect my category.

What I want is that when I click on my Category's icon/space It should redirect to some other page..

$("ul.category-list li a:contains('test')").replaceWith('<a href="www.google.com"> test</a> ');

Please have a look if I am doing something wrong, or ask for more info if you require

@nishant - What theme are you using as I have code located here that doesn't use JQUERY if you are using the Copenhagen theme.
