    Searching for a plugin or some idea, how to make my dream true.
    ------------------
    I have two sections, "movies" and "actors".

    Want to make a connecton between posts, published in these categories.

    As example - when we add a new post for "movies", we need to link this post with some posts in category "actors". Like this:
    ------------------
    Post name: Tropic Thunder
    Category: Movies

    Actors:
    Name - Ben Stiller
    Role - Tugg Speedman

    Name - Robert Downey Jr.
    Role - Kirk Lazarus

    Name - Jack Black
    Role - Jeff Portnoy
    ------------------
    So:
    1) if there is a post in category "actors" with title "Ben Stiller", it should be a link to that post.
    2) if there is no such post in "actors", don't make a link, just show as text "Ben Stiller"
    3) must have a way to show all actors, attach to post on a post page.

    thats all. Any idea, how to realize this?

    I think there are plugins that can do that. See the plugins directory and search for auto link or something, or maybe related posts.

    Gangleri, thanks for reply!
    Tryed to search plugin, but had no luck.

    Also used taxonomies, but they are just like tags, not useful for post-to-post connection.

    Anybody know, is there some new functions in WordPress 3.0, which can help?
