Inline-Linking everything

Pagico provides very powerful and flexible linking features, not just the links in the foot notes section, but also inline links. Your everyday work can become a content-rich wiki with internal links to different objects, saving you lots of time navigating among them.

In order to create links like this, simply use this syntax: [keyword].

The keyword can be anything, ranging from project title, contact name, or even tag name. Take the image as an example, the real text was [Thomas Anderson], and within the same database there was a contact profile for Thomas Anderson.

What if you have several projects with the same title?

In this case, simply use “[project title]” is definitely going to cause problems. So, instead you can use [UID]. UID is the identifier of items stored in the database, and it will never be repetitive. To get the UID for a specific item, simply search for the item (let’s say, a project), and hover your mouse onto the item in the search result. In Pagico, every single item has a UID, and you can use it to create links.

In this example, you can write “[T00000F4]” for a link to the project named “Telematic Opera”.

By using UIDs, you can create inline-links to not just projects or contacts, but also any other objects such as text notes, lists, and files, etc.

Pagico 4+

In Pagico v4.0 and higher, you can also do a search of the desired contact profile, and drag the profile icon from the search result to the current project/profile to create a link.

Also starting from Pagico v4.0, the UIDs are nine characters long (instead of eight in Pagico v3.x, as shown in the screenshot above).
