could you please let me know approximately date, that would be available to use ?

No idea, sorry. I’m hesitating between pure CSS solutions (will require a modern browser), passing it through etc_query (may be complicated for non-techies) and totally rewriting the plugin (needs time)…

Re: etc_link_helper: enhanced Edit link tab

I have finally written another plugin with a drag-n-drop interface that allows you to organize anything in a tree-like menu: articles, images, even txp tags. It looks like this:

Currently for testing only, all suggestions are welcome.

Great.
It could be interesting a way to assign a custom color or, better, a small icon to remember the type of the link (Article, Category, Section or Miscellaneous) in order to recognize them at the first sight.
Not so important, anyway, just a suggestion.

Actually, the links and the containing <li> (on the admin side) have data-type attribute, that starts with article, category, etc, so you can already style them (both public and admin side) like this:

a[data-type^="article"] {color:red}

I will put the etc-tree css in the preference tab for easier integration, thanks for the suggestion.
