Anything like that out there?

Hi. We're finding that linking is more difficult in the CMS than under
our old system.

We have to type in the link by hand, which is more time consuming and
more error prone.

Is there a way to:

  * select text that we want to be a link
  * Then be offered a new window that would allow us to select the
correct file we're linking to
  * then have that path/file name be inserted

That's how it works in our current editing program.

Hi Joe,

Sorry, no direct solution, but here's what I can think of. It will require work though.

[1] You'll need to use something like the Textile Helper that allows you to select a piece of text and click on link.
[2] It should be possible to get that to open a modal window?
[3] In that, you could populate a drop down box/ list of pages that are there... (copy_move extension does that - you could get the code from there?) [4] Once an item is selected and the person clicks on [Select], it could close the window and return the link?

Sorry again - no direct solution :-S

Cheers,
Mohit.
