Does anyone have a script to create a "Related Topics dialog" such as in 2019, and is not in 2022, so that a popup menu can be created for a list of topics. Ideally, the dialog would have ability to add links from the entire topic list, to an adjacent list that becomes the popup menu content.
And if by chance someone created a script to convert Related Topics in the html of 2019 files to convert to 2022, that would be great. I have a very large project, and still holding off on upgrading it till I have both of these scripts. Too much work manually.

I've not seen anyone post about having created such a script and I understand the scrpting is now less well documented.
For what it is worth, it appears that others have accepted the change. Sorry I can't help.

What you're looking for is probably more than a script but a hand-built UI that works as a kind of stand-alone add-on to RH.
This is definitely possible but any programmer would need to know the exact HTM structure of RH 2019 and what you want it to look like in 2022.

In the New UI, you can add multiple topics from a single folder by Ctrl+clicking on the required topics, in case that helps a little. Unfortunately this doesn't seem to work when you search, so you can only add topics one at a time using the search feature.
I would suggest submitting a feature request both to add the "All folders" option and to allow multi-select when searching in the Add Related Topic dialog box.
