Possible to change/overide the title of a facet link manually

I am using facet link in a drupal view with a taxonomy called "Product Name". You can go to a product comparison page on my website, select/search in the facet drop down for the products name and compare up to four products using this method, its basically faceted search but you add to the search and the table view by selecting the products you want to see.

With this I am storing the product name (its basically replicating the title of the product node), so that it can be used in the above example as a facet.

I also have another view which is much more like a faceted search through a product catalogue/directory.

On each product that is shown in that view in the table, there is a field called "Compare" and it uses facet link to send you to the first view I wrote about up top.

The issue here is that it shows the name of the product in the table view, thus duplicating the title that is already present in the view on the left of the table.

Is there any way I can override the TITLE of the facet link to show the text "Compare this product" rather than the original name of the product but still link to the same facet on the view I mention up top?

That sounds like a perfect use case for the Facet URL formatter → . It was originally created for using as a token in Views. Change the formatter of your field to Facet URL, then rewrite the field's output to be <a href="{{ REPLACE_WITH_FIELD_ID }}">Compare this product</a>.

Let me know if that works for you.
