Reply To: Link manager in "Field Type"

Thanks Elliot, I’ll try to explain.
I have a custom field type of “page_link”
It creates a drop down of pages and posts to which I can link to.
I would like to add another post type to this drop down.
The ideal ‘post_type’ that I would like to add is “link” from the link manager (this used to be built in to wordpress but they took it out of core and now it’s available as a plugin – http://wordpress.org/plugins/link-manager/)
What I would like to essentially happen is that when the user wants to add a link he will also have the option to add one of the links created via the “link manager” – these links will also show up in the “page_link” drop down just as pages, posts etc.. show up.
This is the print screen of the “page_link” drop down currently showing only pages, I would like it to show also all the links created with the link manager:

Thanks in advance,
Dan
