Asking just to make sure because this will take a lot of work. I‘m changing the way I want to take notes and I want to get rid of backlinks and replace them with tags because you don‘t see the tags in the queue.
I don’t understand your intention here, sorry. For me backlinks are those shown in the portal(stubs) at the bottom of a page or on the right side of a rem usting the # X
or link symbol.
Using tags will also create backlinks.
Do you mean that you want to replace [[references]] with #tags?
Like
- my rem [[related idea]]
- my rem #related idea
You’d need a plugin/some code for that I think but it can not be made reliably currently because Ability to create all content via API and/or pasting and Resolution of pasted [[references]] and get_by_name
.
When we can add a tag by id and edit complex rems it will be possible to do somehow but you’d also need a pretty fixed syntax in your notes to be able to process them automatically.
Best thing you can do right now is
- copy a rem as tag to clipboard
- go to the reference portal stub
- paste the tag on all references in a first pass
- delete the references in a second pass
Yeah, that‘s what I meant, wasn‘t sure about the names. The main reason why is because I don‘t want to see highlights of words while I‘m clearing the queue, I feel like these give away the answer a little. These inline references are also really awkward in German because of the different cases, so I thought why not replace all of them with tags
Ok, will do as you suggested, thanks for the help
