LinkIt fields aren’t saving correctly

[joshuabaker]

The cell is returning a Twig_Markup instance with an empty link string, instead of the expected array.

<a href=""></a>

That's odd... I am using SuperTable and Linkit together and mine are saving. Is the error coming up on the template side? Or when you save in the back end? Is your Linkit field in a SuperTable cell on the top level or in a Matrix in a SuperTable?

I am not the developer of course... I am just curious if I can be of any help!

Thanks, @theskyfloor!

The field is inside a SuperTable block, which is inside a Matrix block.

I’ve tested and it works as expected when used outside of SuperTable.

@joshuabaker I can't seem to replicate this. See the below screenshots for my field setup, which is pretty normal. Going to go out on a limb here - I hope your Linkit field's handle isn't link?

Like @theskyfloor mentioned - is this an issue when you're saving the Super Table field from the control panel, or an error that pops up when viewing the template from the front-end?

{% for block in entry.matrixSuperTableLinkit %}
    {% for row in block.superTable %}
        {{ row.linkUrl.url }}<br>
    {% endfor %}
{% endfor %}

The handle was indeed link.

Sorry! Thanks for taking the time to check on this.

@joshuabaker +2 points for that pic haha! Glad that's all it was.

On a related note, I'm really struggling to make validation work when the ST field is inside a Matrix. It's something that I'm not even sure is possible without P&T making some changes on their end. That would solve a lot of these problems 😄
