  1. Thanks for all your answers!!! This was really fast and seems like a very active community! I'm sure the code snippet by @szabesz and the fieldtype by @kixe will work as well and are definitely more lightweight. I went with the RuntimeMarkup fieldtype suggested by @elabx as it was the fastest and easiest one to apply. Here is my php snippet for the runtime field: return " <a id='custom-action-button' href='#' onclick='copyUrlToClipboard(event);'>Copy URL to clipboard</a> <input type='text' value='" . $page->httpUrl() . "' id='target-page-url'> <p id='action-executed-hint'>Successfully copied URL to clipboard!</p> <style> #custom-action-button { color: #FFF; background: #93BF0D; font-weight: bold; padding: 0.6em 1.1em; font-size: 1em !important; border-radius: 5px; } #custom-action-button:hover { color: #FFF; background-color: #DB1174; } #custom-action-button:active { color: #FFF; background-color: #860A47; } #custom-action-button:visited { color: #FFF; } #target-page-url { position: absolute; left: -9999px; top: -9999px; opacity: 0; pointer-events: none; } #action-executed-hint { display: none; } #action-executed-hint.show { display: inline; } </style> <script> function copyUrlToClipboard(event) { event.preventDefault(); var urlText = document.getElementById('target-page-url'); urlText.select(); document.execCommand('copy'); var hint = document.getElementById('action-executed-hint'); hint.className += ' show'; } </script> "; It creates an a-tag which is styled like a backend button. Hope its useful for someone else!
  2. @elabx Thanks for the fast reply! This actually looks like a nice way to implement own code! I will take a look at it. Thanks!
  3. Hi guys I'm relatively new to PW and just finished developing a page for a client. I was able to include all necessary functionality using the core fieldtypes but now I it seems that I need to extend them with a custom one. What I need is a simple button, that copies the absolute url (frontend not PW-backend) of the page which is currently edited to the clipboard. As this feature is only needed inside a specific template, I tend to use a custom fieldtype which provides this feature. I've been looking inside the core modules code (eg. FieldtypeCheckbox.module) but I don't really get the structure of it and how its rendered to the admin page. I also didn't find a lot of tutorials covering custom fieldtypes. Maybe some of you could give me some tips on how to write a basic custom fieldtype that renders a button which copies the value of page->httpUrl() to the clipboard using JS. Thanks!
