add hyperlink inside the table.

Hi,

you can add the links by writing HTML like <a href="https://www.mydomain.com/my/link/">Link Text</a>.
I know, thats not user friendly. I′m working on it.

The link attribute target="_blank" opens the link in a new browser tab/window.
<a href="" target="_blank"></a>

Cheers,
Johann

Thanks Johann, We are doing it like tis now, but ut’s too time consuming and the data entry people don’t have the knowledge to do it this way. The site has more than 20000 pages. Doing it like this can open to a lot of errors. Thanks again.

I agree. I′m working on a better table editing experience with a lot of requested functionalities. But even using the classic WordPress editor opens to a lot of errors.

What about using Markdown in your case?

For a website with so many pages, how to deal with hard-coded internal links on changed URLs? Would not it be better to use shortcodes for links using post ids like [link post_id="1234" text="Link Text"]? Changes on the URl would not be a problem anymore. At least one could then check the existence of a URL of a link before linking the link text.

Cheers,
Johann
