Problem to Solve

I will start a scratch page and then need to move it to a better location within ON. When I move it from a personal ON page to to a Work one (It may be the same work -> work, I don't know).

Links I have on this page to this page break when I move it e.g. ToC links (which are easy to fix). More importantly are links on this page to places on this page (usually headings).

It would be good if the move / copy tool would identify these links, warn me about them and then either give me the option of:

  • auto migrating them to the new page.
  • Tagging them in some way, so I can go fix them myself.

Aside: my current standard for linking to the same page (apart from ToC) is:

(this page) as it stops me from clicking a link then using the back button / back mouse button ON actually jumping to the previous page, not the logical, go back to where you came from.

As always loving the product. My #1 request as always - command to clipboard (ToC, Colour.....) so I don't have to execute, copy, undo, paste).

Regards, Jason.

"command to clipboard"? Sorry, what do mean?

In general, is this ticket asking for a "validate all links on the page" command, regardless of where the page came from or how old it is?

"command to clipboard"? Sorry, what do mean? #540 was the main one, but I have a few where invoking anything that adds to the page / formats a selection means I can't use them as is, I have to do the tool > copy > undo > Paste hokey cokey

In general, is this ticket asking for a "validate all links on the page" command, regardless of where the page came from or how old it is? Well, that would be an excellent tool, but there is a specific use case where the command you are about to execute is going to break links.

The validate links is great and I would use that a lot as well as we clean pages up.
