Hello!
I know there's a possibility to make a copy of existing node. But what I need is something like a hard link in a file system.
Suppose I have 2 nodes - node1 and node2, and I have a list of these nodes (with links) on the page.
If you click on one of the links the page with the node related is shown. The trick is that besides title the nodes are identical. And if something is changed in node1 then theese changes are shown in node2.
So, is there any means for making that in ezPublish?

"I know there's a possibility to make a copy of existing node"
It is possible to create exact copy of a node. when you right click on the icon of a node you see the context menu from where you can easly copy a node(look for option copy).
I din't get you can u explain clearly

In eZP terms, it's called "multiple locations for an object". It means creating different nodes in the tree for the same object.

In the admin interface, you add a new location for an existing object in the "Locations" tab

Hello,
I may have not understood the question but if I wanted to link one object to another I might use an Object Relation attribute.
