in views, how to get the replacement pattern of the URL of the link field

Question

using the Link module, i have created a view of content fields:

• Link
• Title
• Body

And i want the Title to be a clickable link to the URL of the Link field. In D7 the links field provided for a replacement pattern for the URL as raw value but in D8 that is not available. How can I make the Title field a clickable link with the Link URL?

Answer 1

The raw replacement pattern isn't available, but you can customize a new hidden field to be the replacement equivalent:

• Add a new link field
  • Check the Exclude from display, URL only, Show URL as plain text options to have your field be available.
• Add a new title field
  • Uncheck Link to the Content
  • Use <a href="{{ field_MY_LINK_FIELD }}">{{ title }}</a> in the rewrite options to render title field with a link to your link field URL
