It would be nice to be able to adjust link texts

Description
In flexforms, when you use a link field, the created link in the frontend has its text set automatically by typo3 :
if you link to an internal page, you will get a link like :
<a href="index.php?id=3">The typo3 page title</a>
if you link to a website, you will get :
<a href="http://www.youtube.com">www.youtube.com</a>
What happens if you you want to have a link like ?
<a href="http://www.youtube.com">View more videos</a>
Well you can't ! This is because the Typolink dialog won't allow you to overlay the text of the specified link. I often miss this feature. The only workaround I have found so far is to map a <a> tag with 3 fields : 'href' and 'target' attributes + a text field. But using this flexform setup, you lose the open window feature...

Links have been automatically substituted by the bugtracker.
You should read :
first link :
'typo3 page title' (linking to index.php?id=3)
second link :
'www.youtube.com' (linking to http://www.youtube.com)
third link :
'view more videos' (linking to http://www.youtube.com)

I don't understand that. Are we talking about the link wizard?
In FlexForms that are parsed as content, you could use
<LINK http://www.domain.tld>My link</LINK>

Wow this is an old issue surfacing...I submited it 2 years ago :-)
Yes I was talking about the link wizard : if you create an external link in the link wizard, you can't force the text of the link. Having a field for that would be a useful addition.

If you want to create custom links change the field to a text/RTE field then you can select some text and add a link to it.
The typoscript typolink.parameter option doesn't support a value option.
