Good afternoon everyone,
I'm having trouble setting up links inside of a grid. I want to turn the values in a particular column into hyperlinks. Earlier, I tried using a template to turn the values into likes like so:
And that worked most of the time. However, some of the grids have multiple pages, and when you go to a different page, the links turn into plain text. So instead, I tried using HtmlAttributes to set up the links, and the probably with the links disappearing went away, but now I'm having trouble getting the value from "model". I tried doing this in many ways:
and a few other ways using model (like putting model => out in front of new and several other places) but I got errors like "lambda expressions are not a delegate type, cannot convert to string" and such. I also tried things like:
but again, I got errors saying "item does not exist in this context".
Is there any way to retrieve these values within HtmlAttributes or do I need to find a way to make Template work?

columns.Bound(model => model.Value).Title("Details")
.Template(model => { return "<a href = *epicly long link*" + model.linkID>" + model.Value+ "</a>"; });And that worked most of the time.
