The freelinking module implements a filter for the easier creation of HTML links to other pages in the site or external sites with a wiki style format such as [[pluginname:identifier]].

For example: [[nodetitle:page one]] becomes:

  <a href="/node/1" title="page one" class="freelink freelink-nodetitle freelink-internal">page one</a>

Available formats

Freelinking 3 (available for Drupal 6 and 7) supports the following links:

  • Drupal.org pages by nid.
  • Drupal.org projects at by their project name.
  • Files in public files directory.
  • One inch frame links.
  • User profile links by uid.
  • Paths by internal URLs.
  • Links to nodes by their title.
  • Wikibooks.org, Wikipedia.org, Wikiquote.org, Wiktionary.org, Wikisource.org and Wikinews.org links by page ttitle.
  • Google search for a particular string.
  • Local search for a string.
  • Nodes by nid.

Implement new formats as plugins

Freelinking 3 introduces an extensible framework for building "easy linking" syntax specialized for your project.

If you want to develop FL3 plugins, read the documentation in CVS.

Old versions

Freelinking 1.x

The 1.x line of Freelinking helps in the creation of links to existing (internal) content or links to new content creation via automatic linking of CamelCase words or words with double-square-bracket delimiters. It can be used 'wiki style' to provide links between content or easy creation of new linked content. It does not implement a 'wiki' type of content; this can be done with the core contents type like blog or story, or handled via the CCK.

Freelinking 4.7-1.x and 6.x-2.x

Those are no longer being maintained, nor are active developers familiar with the codebase. They are still available via the Releases page.
