I need to create links from articles/items, in order to fill a simple text or link field.

Is it possible to have an article picker just like in menu or JCE editor for fields like link or just simple text?

Hello

you want to create links that point to some form

and when clicked the form opens and some of the fields are filled-in automatically ?

i think you can do it simply
1 create a select field
2 use sql request to list item in com_content table (title = name and id = value) => your field return value
3 use prefix and sufix to create your link prefix
Code:
<a hreh=".......id=
suffix
Code:
" target="self"> your title link</a>
4 set remove space option to yes

No I am looking for a way in the back-end to create a link to an item in order to have a slideshow pointing to that article.

I am using a text or link field but for the moment we can’t pick the articles directly in the backend.

My temporary solution is to copy the link in another windows and paste it in my field. Not really professional.
