 * 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](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins)
   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?
