<p>Extend URL widget features to ease customization of anchor's text.</p>
<p>By default, the URL widget will show the plain URL.
You can specify an attribute to provide a static label too.</p>
<p>With this module, you can use a field for link's inner text using attribute
'text_field'. You can also add a prefix to the link using attribute
'prefix_name'.</p>
<p>Until 13.0 this functionality was separated in modules 'web_widget_url_advanced'
and 'web_widget_prefixed_url'</p>

<p>Use <cite>url</cite> widget as you do usually, then add an extra parameter <cite>text_field</cite>
to indicate which field (present in the view already) must be used for the anchor text.</p>
<pre>
<code lang="xml"><field name="some_url" widget="url" text_field="another_field" /></code>
</pre>
<p>M2O fields are supported: <cite>display_name</cite> is used automatically.</p>
<p>For example, in the partner form,
if you want to display the website link with partner's name as anchor you can do:</p>
<pre>
<code lang="xml"><field name="website" widget="url" text_field="name" placeholder="e.g. www.odoo.com"/></code>
</pre>
<p>This is going to change the rendering from</p>

<p>Or user can add any hyperlink text using 'prefix_name' attribute</p>
<pre>
<code lang="xml"><field name="skype_name" widget="url" 'prefix_name': 'skype'/></code>

<p>both can be applied inside the options attribute too:</p>
<pre>
<code lang="xml"><field name="skype_name" widget="url" options="{'prefix_name': 'skype'}"/></code>
