Give content editors a page sector to create a link

[johnboyuk1]

I may have missed something obvious here... but I want to build into my templates a link which can then be set by the content editors via a pages admin screen in order to set that link to go to another page in the site

So the html in the template would be something like

Code: Select all

<a href="{some CMSMS tag}">Click me</a>

Where the content editor gets the ability to set that link to go where they want through the content manager pages

I know I could do this with a basic text field that would require them getting a full URL and pasting it in, but if there's a way of doing it through dropdown like you get in the navigation tab, or through the selfliink type interface you get in the Tiny editor that would be useful

Hope that makes sense?

I think maybe you want a content type that's a page selector? If so, look at the ECB2 module.

Yep - that sounds like what I need... wasnt sure if it was available as part of the core some how... I'll take a look at ECB2

Sorry I meant content block type - and no, only in the core for module use afaik. ECB2 is fantastic and well-maintained though.
