 * Some data inside the table are links – How can I add them? I do not see any options
   when adding text to a cell. Thanks

 * Hi,
 * you can add the links by writing HTML like `<a href="https://www.mydomain.com/
   my/link/">Link Text</a>`.
    I know, thats not user friendly. I´m working on it.
 * The link attribute `target="_blank"` opens the link in a new browser tab/window.
   `
   <a href="" target="_blank"></a>`
 * Cheers,
    Johann

 * Thanks Johann, We are doing it like tis now, but ut’s too time consuming and 
   the data entry people don’t have the knowledge to do it this way. The site has
   more than 20000 pages. Doing it like this can open to a lot of errors. Thanks
   again.

 * Thanks Johann, We are doing it like this now, but ut’s too time consuming and
   the data entry people don’t have the knowledge to do it this way. The site has
   more than 10000 pages with thousands of links inside ACF tables. Doing it like
   this can open to a lot of errors. Thanks again.

 * I agree. I´m working on a better table editing experience with a lot of requested
   functionalities. But even using the classic WordPress editor opens to a lot of
   errors.
 * What about using Markdown in your case?
 * For a website with so many pages, how to deal with hard-coded internal links 
   on changed URLs? Would not it be better to use shortcodes for links using post
   ids like `[link post_id="1234" text="Link Text"]`? Changes on the URl would not
   be a problem anymore. At least one could then check the existence of a URL of
   a link before linking the link text.
 * Cheers,
    Johann
