Yii 2.0 General Discussions

Can somebody give me an example how to change the standard-button for let’s say the ‘view Glyph button’ . I have to post one of the datafields in the searchModel as parameter in the url.

Hope this helps




[

'class'    => 'yii\grid\ActionColumn',

'template' => '{view} {login}',

'buttons'  => [

'login' => function($key, $client) {

	$url = 'some code here'

	return Html::a('LOGIN', $url, ['target' => '_blank']);

}

]

Big thanks Flarpy, works like a charm, not completely what I intend to do but I got it and now it’s clear to me. There is much BS on the internet how to do this. This one works.

This is what I used to handover parameters in the ActionColumn button.

$model[‘id’] and $model[‘role_id’] are of-course values coming from the ‘result-record’.

The code does not work for the delete-button because the controller only accepts POST variables in the deleteAction, that is why we set data-method to POST for the delete-button.
