Cross-Links Grid Management for Magento 2

This guide covers the cross-link management interface in Cross-Linking. The grid is where you create, edit and manage all your keyword-to-URL rules. Each rule defines a keyword to match in your content and the link to create when it's found. You can manage rules individually or use mass actions to update multiple rules at once.

Location: Marketing → Cross-Links

Editing a Cross-Link Rule

Click the Edit action in the grid row, or click the row itself, to open the edit form. All fields are editable. Save to apply changes. Remember to flush cache after making changes.

Deleting a Cross-Link Rule

Two ways to delete:

1. From the grid — Select the checkbox next to the rule, then use Mass Actions → Delete
2. From the form — Click the Delete button in the edit form

Both show a confirmation dialog before deleting.

Tips

• Start small — Create 5-10 rules for your most important keywords before expanding
• Set max replacements to 1 for most rules to avoid over-linking
• Use priority wisely — When keywords overlap (e.g., "yoga" and "yoga mats"), give the longer/more specific keyword a higher priority
• Check store scoping — If a rule isn't working, verify the store view assignment
• Flush cache after any changes — cross-links are cached with the page content
