    Hello!🙄

    In the WYSIWYG editor toolbar is "Article" and selecting it --> a window opens:

    Image


    In this case, an user have to indicate the article ID for established a link!. But isn't a trivial option..

    Is there a posibility to select the existing articles by a combo_list or a box?❓

    The article selection could be more easy if the user can choose through a article name list.. right?

    thanks!
    regards..

    If this is for regular users, why not use the Article List plugin to give a list of Articles which the user can then select?

    Hi!
    thanks for your reply.
    Mmmm.. yes, the option that you mention is a possibility. But article-list plugin returns all articles.. Ok, the article-list plugin permits to select by different parameters a short preferent list of articles, but (e.g.) you can't select articles through the article title.
    This is the issue...

    Hi Actano

    This wouldn't be too tricky - i would word it as "Adding an autocomplete feed to article fields in plugin forms", and while we're at it what about blogs or indeed blog posts? 😛

    Pages, Groups and Users already have these autocomplete lists set up, so it should be too daunting to add more. (sorry i can't take any more on at the moment)

    Yes, thats right!.. "Adding an autocomplete feed to article fields in plugin forms" could be a good solution.
    I will study the case.
    Thanks a lot
