Link to media
We want to use the media library to provide PDF files for download on CMS pages. While there are special plugins for this, sometimes a simple link would do.
Current process:
- go to media library
- finde the PDF
- use copy link
- go to CMS page
- click the "link" button
- choose URL option
- paste the link, remove the base URL (for better portability between development and production instances)
A better approach would be to be able to directly link to media files in place.
See the attached screenshot:
1) I click the link button
2) I choose "media file in the dropdown"
3) I get a media browser popup to choose the media entity
That chooser is already present for products and there it replaces the base URL by a UUID placeholder. This should then happen also for media files.

Not enough interest
We’re closing this idea because it has not received significant interest or activity over the past 24 months. This helps us keep the idea portal focused on the topics that are most relevant to our community.
Thank you for taking the time to submit and support it. We’ll continue to monitor customer needs and may reconsider the topic if interest grows in the future.

There is already a pull request https://github.com/shopware/platform/pull/2685 which is currently a bit stalled because we made it depend on another pull request :-) Still an important feature I suppose.
