Dear Community,
As you all may know, it is possible to highlight (link) people in the FEED chat by using '@'. https://prnt.sc/22xks00
I was wondering if we can link products or other objects as well within the FEED tab.
If not, is it possible to have an embedded link within the FEED like this (link to google) instead of like this: 'www.google.com'?
Kind regards,
Yosef

Hi Yosef,
It's theoretically possible, but will require overriding:
1) prepareEntitiesExpandableList and getContactItems methods in the SocialMentionUtilities module
2) the ESNFeedModuleService class and creating your own logic of finding Orders or Products (like it's done for contacts (the logic can be found in the GetContactsForMention method of the ESNFeedModuleService class))
As for your second question - you can copy this using CRTL+C/CTRL+V and paste it inside the feed and you will see that the link will be copied as well. It's because feed supports HTML and the href is also copied with the CRTL+C/CTRL+V. So the fast workaround here could be:
1) Open the "Attachments and notes" tab
2) Form the URL inside the text there:
3) Copy the created text and paste it into the feed:
I will also create a suggestion for our R&D team so they could add a feature of selecting the entity which should be used for feed messages posting out-of-the-box.
Thank you for this idea and helping us in making the app better!
Best regards,
Oscar
