Joomla 3.x. How to create cross-articles links

Please follow these instructions to assign links to the articles in your Joomla site.

  1. Log into your Joomla admin panel. Go to Content -> Article manager section:

    joomla_3.how_to_create_cross-articles_links_1

  2. Select the article where you need to add link to another article. We will work with the Management article, select any article you need in your admin panel article manager.

  3. Open the article. Find the “Article” button to select the article you need to add as link:

    joomla_3.how_to_create_cross-articles_links_2

  4. Select the article from the list. We have selected article with title “Solutions”:

    joomla_3.how_to_create_cross-articles_links_3

  5. Save your changes and see the initial article page. It has a link to the new article now:

    joomla_3.how_to_create_cross-articles_links_4

  6. You can also assign an image to this link. You need to edit the html source of the article. Click on Tools -> Source Code:

    joomla_3.how_to_create_cross-articles_links_5

  7. The link code looks like the following:

    	<a href="index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=20&catid=19&Itemid=101">solutions</a>
    

    You need to add the html code for the image between the opening tag <a href=”…”> and closing tag </a>.
    The final code should look like the following:

    <a href="index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=20&catid=19&Itemid=101">
    <img src="http://templatetesting.com/carey/images/team/team-2.jpg" />solutions
    </a>
    
  8. Save the changes and check the site. The image in the initial article content is also linked to another article now:
