This extension lets you quickly link to articles in your Joomla! site when you are creating content. You can either search for your article with the search box, or find it by selecting the section and category. Finally, the link class, title, relation and url are completely customizable, making Linkr the perfect linking extension for Joomla!

Well it might be working with Opera but obviously it is not working with Google Chrome, Firefox 4 and IE 9 and 8. Well, as most of you know that vast majority of internet users are using latest browser versions and this extension is lack of updates and compatibility. Too bad since I would love to give better ranks if this browser was WORKING.
Thanks.
Thanks.
I use this in conjunction with the 'Enbed PDF' plug-in in order to open .pdf's within my website pages and these two plug-ins work flawlessly together. I have no idea why either of these functions aren't part of the Joomla core but thanks to both Dev's, these are an integral part of my website functionality!
Thanks!
Thanks!
The extension works as advertised and it is useful especially for the JCE editor where it is not possible to create link to the article until you have written text which is really frustrating.
As for the Linkr extensions, I have only small remark - the appereance of the selection dialog could be slightly improved. Especially the alingment of the texts in dropdowns to the center is quite unfriendly.

Powerfull system really well integrated into joomla. Among others, I've used it to add link to our contact page within newsletters published via AcyMailing.
A great, powerfull solution, with a simple interface conveniently located under the editor window. A huge improvement to working with the site and for adding files uploaded through the media manager. You can link to existing files or upload on the spot. Have been using for almost a year now with no issues.
I was looking for a simple extension which would enable me to link to any content from anywhere on my site. The only problem I have encountered and I am sure that it is something to do with me is on one of my sites I get an extended link box appearing and on the other I don't. Great job though!
Darn, I don't know what happened. This used to work perfectly, now nothing. When I hit "get link" nothing whatever happens.
Too bad, I built instructional materials around this. Now I have to go back and rebuild a lot of stuff. I suppose the only other option to link to an article in Joomla is JCE editor?
If I had a way of determining the URL of a Joomla page, I could just link directly. Without that, I am stuck.
Any suggestions for how to make an internal link without Linkr would be appreciated. Also, how to find URL of a Joomla article.

The three of us at gGarden Rooms use this all the time. Had some problems at first, but now we recommend it to our on-line marketing clients. Great.
Great little component, easy to install. Would like to see the ability to list files in larger pop-up window with more details ( i.e File name, size, date etc.etc) and sort function to enable easier selecting of links to files. But that is being "picky". Great job by the developer and thanks from a grateful Joomla admin.
