This module allows to add a reference name on documents and simplifies the link between document pages.

AI-generated from the code · Odoo 18.0

Adds a unique reference name to each document page and lets you link to other pages inside the text using {{reference}} placeholders, which are turned into clickable links.

This module extends the Document Page (wiki) feature. Each page now has a short reference name that must be unique and can only contain letters, numbers and underscores; if you leave it empty when creating a page, Odoo fills it automatically from the page title.

Inside the page content you can write a reference between double curly brackets, for example {{my_page}}. When the page is displayed or printed, that placeholder is replaced by a clickable link to the referenced page. Existing links that already point to another page are also recognised and kept working.

Where it appears: - On the document page form, a reference field is shown above the title, and the content is displayed in a read-only parsed view with clickable links. - The reference can be searched and is available as an optional column in the document page list. - The printed document report uses the parsed content, so references appear as links in the PDF.

Business rules and automatic behaviour: - The reference must be unique and follow the allowed character pattern, otherwise Odoo shows a validation error. - The reference is auto-generated from the page name when not provided. - The parsed content is computed automatically from the page content.

It touches the document.page model and its form, list, search and report views.
