wrap markup around column value
I would like to be able to add markup within Admin Columns column settings for a retrieved value in order to create a link.
This would require 2 features:
- Add before and after markup
- Assign retrieved value as a variable which can be used in the before and after markup
Our use case is that we use WordPress as a content creation tool We consume content from WordPress into a JAMStack front-end via custom APIs. In Admin Columns I am exposing a post’s slug, and would like to add before markup [https://domain.com/pathname/$slug] then the returned value of the slug, then after markup of [].
Within the list view of my posts, I would see the slug, which would be linked to the JAMStack url, therefore allowing our content owners to see the post they just created on the correct site.
I expect we can use something like the ac/column/value filter – but its not clear to me.
Yes, you’re correct the ac/column/value filter is the hook that you should use to do that.
Have a look at the second snippet in our example repo for this specific hook.

Make sure to check for the correct column in order to change the value.
yeah – that doesnt work.
What do you mean it does not work?
Can you share the code that you used with me?
