Inline relation links
under consideration

I'm writing a few KB articles and am saying something along the lines of "Connect to abc and use credential xyz", then I'm creating a relation to password xyz on the article.
I can't help but feel it would be great to Facebook/Twitter style type @, #, or similar, and then get a relation popup and be able to inline have a link.
It would then be even better if clicking that inline link could have a popup with the credential/related information rather than navigating away (with the option to open the related link fully).

Allow users to reference people and assets directly in documentation with shorthand symbols:
• @Name → Links to a person (either a Hudu user or an asset from the People Asset Layout). Example: “For more information, contact @Joe.Smith.”
• #Asset/Doc → Links to assets or KB documents. Example: “If #CompanyX wants to use #ProductY, consult with @Person.Name.”
These references should auto-suggest matches and embed hyperlinks automatically.
This would simplify knowledgebase authoring by eliminating the need to manually copy and insert URLs, while also improving readability and navigation for end users.

Link to anything in HUDU from Rich Text links

When writing Rich Text, occasionally you reference assets, processes, or other HUDU content. It would be great if when you go select text and create a link, that you could choose to insert a link to an existing HUDU asset.
I know you can link whatever to whatever, but inline (where it's mentioned) in rich text would be a great addition.

Support @ Mentions for Linking KB Articles by Title

We would like the ability to type @ followed by a knowledge base article title within a KB article editor (similar to how mentions work in platforms like Notion or Confluence).
This would:
- Automatically search for matching KB articles by title as the user types.
- Allow selection from a dropdown list of matching titles.
- Upon selection, insert a hyperlink to the referenced KB article.

ITGlue has a similar feature and it was pretty handy.

Relationship links in text fields

It would be really useful if we could add text links to specific assets/passwords/users etc. in any rich text field using a searchable interface instead of having to find the page in question then create a URL link to that page.
In my imagination it looks alot like the "Related Items" Add popup but on the Rich Text edit toolbar.

This is definitely missing compared to another documentation tools. Please add this feature. Would love to see it in Hudu. Thank you.

This would be very helpful, the feature I miss most from our old "glue" days

This definitely needs to happen.. Silly linking and also relating, just to show the relationship of articles. Relating them on the side of the article itself is a little confusing.
