Observation:
Cleverly, if the value of a custom field is a URL (http://~some site~) it will be presented as a clickable link on the front end.
However, https://~some site~ will not.
Given that sites often force ssl I made the following change in <install>/components\com_jem\views\venue\tmpl\default.php:
From:
if(substr($currentRow, 0, 7) == "http://") {
To:
if((substr($currentRow, 0, 7) == "http://") || (substr($currentRow, 0, 8) == "https://")){
Additionally, rather than presenting the written URL as a link I made it a graphic...
From:
$currentRow = '<a href="'.$this->escape($currentRow).'" target="_blank">'.$this->escape($currentRow).'</a>';
To:
$currentRow = '<a href="'.$this->escape($currentRow).'" target="_blank"><img src="SOME IMAGE PATH" border="0" alt="SOME ALT"></a>';
