in the HEADER of PDF report generated by QWeb, the html Archor "<a>" can show the word "Google" but is not clickable. please advise how to make the href link work in pdf header converted from QWeb template, thanks!
Other cases I tried:
1) the same code in '<div class="page">' DIRECTLY and it works well, like the "facebook" in the example.
2) use "t-attf-href" instead of "href", not work;
3) "<a>" in class "footer", not work;
I am working on Odoo 13.
Code:
<template id="quotation_order">
<t t-call="web.basic_layout">
<div class="page">
<a href="https://www.facebook.com/">facebook</a>
<div class="header">
<div class="header">
<div>
<a href="https://www.google.com/">Google</a>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</t>
</template>
did you find an answer? I'm also having the same problem.
Hi Sakthi,
There is no ideal solution for this issue.
1) Odoo team confirmed that it is a bug in a 3rd party tool "wkhtmltopdf" and there is nothing Odoo can do right now;
2) The bug was found back in 2014 but there is still no target date in "wkhtmltopdf" to fix it. So I think we should not expect it can be fixed recently.
Two workarounds:
1) If the link is text and starts with www., like "www.abc.com", it is clickable;
2) someone found another workaround and posted it on https://github.com/wkhtmltopdf/wkhtmltopdf/issues/1692
Unfortunately both of the workarounds do not work in my case, hope they work for you.
Thank you :)
