Hello all,

I work with Joomla for some time but I have only little question. How can I point to an article without first make a link of it in a menu?

A: 

Do you mean link? The dirty way to do it is you can pull the id and the title out of the url when you are editing it and then get creative with your link to reconstruct a url (by using a link you already know about) that the user will need to get to the article.

Does that make sense?

That's what I thought about too, good thought. I just stumbeled on this too :) Maybe you can use it also. http://j.l33p.com/linkr

Great find, that's something that should have been included in the CMS by defualt. That's definitely a better solution than what I suggested :)

Also, the JCE Editor has a button where you can link to any article and sidestep the menu system: http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/88/details
