fortun 14 Posted June 24, 2014 Is this possible? Want to link to my Workshop in my briefing, so when i click on it i will be transported to my workshops homepage. However, is this even possible to do? Wants this because i want to tell player to go there to get the newest update of a mission. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grumpy Old Man 3546 Posted June 29, 2014 You could probably use the execute command in the diary together with the copytoclipboard command so players could copy+paste your link into their browsers: https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/createDiaryRecord Messed with it for a bit but couldn't get it to work properly, maybe someone else can.

Maybe a little bit late to the party, but I just had a thought to achieve the same thing and got it working. Steps I took were: 1. Create a .sqf in your mission (e.g. links.sqf) with a copyToClipboard of your link: copyToClipboard "https://youtu.be/2ZpStHUFQ-4"; 2. Declare the .sqf in your description.ext: class CfgFunctions { class MIL { class Common { class links {file = "links.sqf";}; }; }; 3. In your diary record include the command <execute expression='code'>text</execute> in the same way that you'd use a marker link as part of a sentence or something else: bla bla bla <execute expression='nul = [] spawn MIL_fnc_links'>(Copy YouTube link to clipboard)</execute> more bla bla bla I hope that is easy to understand. I'm running on a full day after very little sleep last night, so if the explanation is a bit off please let me know and I'll fix it up, because I got it working for myself pretty easily. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Larrow 2822 Posted March 19, 2018 Most buttons now support a URL and when clicked will open a users web browser at the given page. It should be possible to inject a button into the diary subject area when the user opens the map. For example... Spoiler description.ext #include "baseDefines.hpp" //call BIS_fnc_exportGUIBaseClasses #include "openWebpage.hpp" openWebPage.hpp class myWebpageButton : ctrlButton { url = "https://forums.bohemia.net/forums/topic/169501-link-to-website-in-briefing/"; colorSelect[] = { 0, 1, 0, 1 }; soundSelect[] = {}; }; initPlayerLocal.sqf player createDiarySubject[ "MyMod", "My Mod" ]; player createDiaryRecord[ "MyMod", [ "Mod Info", "" ] ]; addMissionEventHandler [ "Map", { params[ "_isOpen" ]; if ( _isOpen ) then { //1001, 1002, 1013 disableSerialization; _display = uiNamespace getVariable "RscDiary"; _diaryList = _display displayCtrl 1001; _diarySubList = _display displayCtrl 1002; TAG_fnc_showSelection = { disableSerialization; params[ "_ctrl", "_index" ]; _display = ctrlParent _ctrl; _diarySubList = _display displayCtrl 1002; waitUntil{ ctrlShown _diarySubList }; _diaryEntry = _display displayCtrl 1013; if ( _diarySubList lbText ( lbCurSel _diarySubList ) == "Mod Info" ) then { if ( isNull ( _diaryEntry controlsGroupCtrl 10001 ) ) then { _btnHeight = 0.02 * safeZoneH; //Hide diary entry html _contentHtml = _diaryEntry controlsGroupCtrl 1003; _contentHtml ctrlSetFade 1; _contentHtml ctrlCommit 0; //Inject button ctrlPosition _diaryEntry params[ "_entryX", "_entryY", "_entryW", "_entryH" ]; _ctrl = _display ctrlCreate [ "myWebpageButton", 10001, _diaryEntry ]; _ctrl ctrlSetPosition[ 0, 0, _entryW / 3, _btnHeight ]; _ctrl ctrlCommit 0; _ctrl ctrlSetText "Click Me"; }; }else{ //If its not the mod info entry //AND the injected button exists if !( isNull ( _diaryEntry controlsGroupCtrl 10001 ) ) then { //Delete injected button ctrlDelete ( _diaryEntry controlsGroupCtrl 10001 ); //Unhide entry html _contentHtml = _diaryEntry controlsGroupCtrl 1003; _contentHtml ctrlSetFade 0; _contentHtml ctrlCommit 0; }; }; }; _diaryList ctrlAddEventHandler [ "LBSelChanged", { _this spawn TAG_fnc_showSelection; }]; _diarySubList ctrlAddEventHandler [ "LBSelChanged", { _this spawn TAG_fnc_showSelection; }]; }; }]; TEST MISSION May need some fineness to look right/work properly but will do as a quick example. 3 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
terox 316 Posted May 16, 2020 Great Find, thank you Larrow. If you use missioneventhandler oneachframe, this will allow the link to work in the initial briefing, not after the mission has started Am dabbling with this and have success passing an auto start teamspeak and link to my teamspeak button Need to remove the oneachframe EH after succesfully adding the button and some more tweaking EDIT. Now have a working example for easy integration into your missions.. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
