Well, at Flotiq, we've always had this brilliant trick up our sleeve called in-place relation editing. And honestly, it's been around since, like, day one. The whole idea was to make your life easier – no more jumping through hoops just to connect your content. You do it right there, on the spot, where you're already working. It's properly clever, if you ask us.
The OG Idea: Keeping Everything Connected, Simply
From the very beginning, we at Flotiq got it. Content isn't just a bunch of isolated bits and bobs. Your blog post needs an author, some tags, maybe a few related articles. A product needs its categories, the brand, and all those lovely images. Most CMSs treat these connections like separate chores you have to do later. Not Flotiq.
The whole point of in-place relation editing was to let you build and manage these links intuitively. Say you're fiddling with a "Product" entry. You click on the "Categories" field, and boom! Instead of being sent off to a whole different page, you get this neat little pop-up right there. You can pick existing categories, or if you're feeling fancy, even knock up a new one on the fly. It's like having all your crucial bits of content just... there. So handy.

After clicking the Pick tags button, you see and can choose all of the tags that you need:

Or you can check if, for example, you need to update the author, and by clicking here on the pencil icon:

You see all the info about them:

Honestly, this one feature has saved content teams so much faffing about. It speeds things up massively and cuts down on those annoying little mistakes. It just lets you focus on, you know, writing good content, instead of wrestling with the system. And if you're a bit of a nerd like me and want to see how it all hangs together under the bonnet, the is pretty solid.
