Is there a way to, instead of relative paths to internal links, we can do an absolute path from root?
EX: Instead of the following to navigate up and then back down the folder structure:
[[.../.../Folder/File]]
We could just do this and it would work from wherever this link existed in the site hierarchy:
[[/Folder/File]]
I will take a look at this
I spend some hours into this topic and tried to support both cases, even if they are mixed in one environment. Unfortunately there is one edge case which I can't manage.
If you have a file (via relative file name) in one folder it will look like this
![[Pasted image 20240111010137.png]]
The problem is, files located in the root folder will look like the same so I can't decide if i need to link to the same folder or the root folder.
The only option I see is to implement a setting (variable) to switch between relative and absolute file links.
its implemented on the dev branch and will be included in the next release. There will be a new setting ABSOLUTE_PATHES
fixed / implemented in 1.5.8
there is a little bug in the 1.5.8, its already fixed in the dev version and will be in the next release
Thanks! Sorry for me not checking my notifications for so long. I see this has already been implimented, so awesome!
Had I not been tardy I would have responded as follows:
The problem is, files located in the root folder will look like the same so I can't decide if i need to link to the same folder or the root folder.
I would have it only look for such a file in the current local folder. If the user wants to reference something in the root they could just do a /image.png
Just my 2 cents. :) Thanks for your work on this.
