Patch #16313
closed
Allow to link to an anchor of the current wikipage
Description
Currently, it is not possible to link to an anchor of the current wiki page without having to also mention the name of the current wiki page in the link. This becomes tedious quickly if there are many such links. Should the wiki page later be moved, these inline links become quickly obsolete.
The attached patch which we developed for one of our customers at Planio adds the possibility to link directly to an anchor using the following syntax:
- simple link:
[[#Anchor]] - link with custom text:
[[#Anchor|Link Text]]

- Target version set to 4.1.0
I think the proposed behavior is more natural than the current behavior. Setting target version to 4.1.0.

I found that the patch generates a confusing link in some cases. If an anchor consists of only numeric characters, the generated link looks like an issue.

Does anyone have any comments on this behavior? I think this is acceptable because people rarely create wiki pages with such names.
