TitleLink is a must have to link between Joomla! articles without using cryptic hyperlinks. TitleLink also minimizes the risk of breaking article links when changes are made to the target article. In contrast to other extensions TitleLink doesn't need the article ids to find your article - so you always get exactly the right links. It always dynamically finds the right hyperlink to your articles! To learn more about this great plugin have a look at the always current documentation: https://github.com/gesellix/titlelink#readme .
** 2012-04-12: TitleLink has moved from the old Joomlacode repository to GitHub. Tracker items will be copied to the according issues page at GitHub, too. **
Currently supported components are:
- com_alberghi ( http://joomlacode.org/gf/project/alberghi/ )
- com_artforms ( http://joomlacode.org/gf/project/jartforms/ )
- com_content ( Joomla! )
- com_docman ( http://joomlacode.org/gf/project/docman/ )

If you encounter any problems please note me through the plugin site (Tracker) or my private homepage!
I wish I had learned about this earlier in my Joomla existence. It's SO easy to make links to other articles in 2.5 with this plug-in. Thanks for working hard to make it easy for the end user.
Thank you very much for this plug-in. On my site, the original Joomla 2.5.3 "insert article link" button doesn't work properly (it makes bad links to article ID). For entire day I was testing many plug-ins... Neither didn't work at all!!!... And suddenly I found your TitleLink! The only one plug-in which works perfectly! - As described.... I am very thankful. Best Regards
Today I tried the v3.2.0 of Titlelink plugin, it works fine.
This is a great idea to create internal links. However, I am thinking of another better usage: I can use it to turn the article system into a Wiki.
Two things need to be improved:
1. If I enabled "auto create link", then, on the "submit article" form, the "title" should be automatically filled (or just hidden to prevent manual input), because the Article Title HAD been specified in the syntax code.
2. If I disable "auto create link" feature, the text is showing up as Bold style. However, I think they should be just plain text.
Thanks.

Hyperlinking to pages should be so simple ... but it isn't! This simple bit of kit is THE business. Simple, quick and it works!
Support is quick and excellent too, realized I was typing 'in' (for insert) instead of 'ln'(for line) once I got that sorted it couldn't have been easier.
Well done Tobias and I agree this should be standard in Joomla.

Well. I was struggling for a couple of days to get a proper internal linking structure. I never wanted to created a menu link, but I just needed to publish a page and then link it internally, I had tremendous internal links and the tinymce or JCE is useless. JCE is worthwhile but if you want SEF url's then it will drain the juice. This title link plugin was just a fly, It did miracle, I was able to link to the content item in seconds by just a single command of {ln:} I was further surprised to see that my SEF url was seen when i put a mouse over the link !!! That was the best !!! It should be the core !! I will be the first person to vote for the core for this plugin !!
Enjoy Team !! Excellent Excellent work !! If I had more words to appreciate it I would have given it !! Keep it up and Up and UUP @ :)

I was upgrading a clients site from 1.0 to 1.5 and found this plugin was used on the 1.0 site with several hundred links.
Thank goodness there was a 1.5 compatible version.
I simply uploaded and activated it, and all the links started working perfectly again.
So I discovered this plugin by chance.
Very nice indeed !

Installing Titlelink 3.0.7 with my Joomla 1.5 some of the links worked, some did not and I could not figure out why. Writing a short email to the develpoer, Tobias he could fix the problem together with me within minutes - Thanks a lot! This is what a support should be like!
TitleLink is an indispensable tool! I have used in on every site I have built for the past 2 years.
How else can you generate a dynamic link that can adjust to changing locations and domain names? This is it! With TitleLink, I can set up all of my internal links at the development site and they still work when we move servers or transfer domain names. And if I move the section or category for an article later on, then the link still works.
Plus, the developer, Tobias, is the best. I contacted him with a problem I was experiencing with V3.0.5 in J1.5.x sites, and he replied IMMEDIATELY and worked with me to find a solution. And this is a FREE extension!! I WISH I could get this kind of support from some of the commercial extensions that I am using!
(By the way, if you had a problem using TitleLink in your Joomla 1.5 site, please try again using version 3.0.6. You will not regret it.)

I've just installed the plugin in 1.5 RC3 and so far it works beautifully. I have tried both links to internal articles by title and to Wikipedia by phrase -- no problem. It's great that the plugin allows changing the separator, since several of my titles contain colons (:). I'm impressed by the number of ways the plugin link can be specified, including opening new windows, defining the class of the link, searching any one of a long provided list of sites, even appending an anchor reference. The developers have clearly used the plugin themselves extensively, and have made it very versatile. Highly recommended!
This is such a time saver. You can easily create links in your content to other items and web sites.
Yes, I do think this is a lovely plugin. I have only just installed it and worked through info to see how it works, but allready this seems like a sensible tool!
This is really a must have. If you ever want to link to another content item in an easy way, you have to try this.
If it could be upgraded to work in combination with Joomfish, it would be wonderfull. At this stage it can't be used on a multi-lingual site.

Owner's reply
It can be used on multilingual sites, when caching is disabled.
