]

🐛 Feature 3: Multiple Buttons Fix

Problem

When multiple fields had button types (link_button, whatsapp_button), only the first button would work correctly due to:

  • Non-unique class names
  • No target="_blank" attribute
  • Potential event conflicts

Solution

Added unique identifiers and proper attributes to each button:

Changes Made

File: assets/public.js

Before:

r = '<a href="'+r+'" class="button dw-checker-value-button">'+button_text+'</a>';

After:

r = '<a href="'+r+'" class="button dw-checker-value-button dw-checker-btn-'+id+'" target="_blank" rel="noopener">'+button_text+'</a>';

Improvements

  1. Unique Class: dw-checker-btn-{field_id} for each button
  2. Target Blank: Opens in new tab
  3. Security: rel="noopener" prevents window.opener access
  4. All Types: Fixed in all 4 display types

Applied To

  • Link buttons (lines 125, 172, 238, 315)
  • WhatsApp buttons (lines 127, 174, 240, 317)
  • All 4 display types (vertical-table, div, standard-table, card)
