When does the "This Document is in X Folders" search portal stub appear?

I assumed this counts the number of times a Rem is used as a portal target. But this does not seem to be true.

What does it count exactly?
And how do I create one reliably? For example I get the “X References to this Rem” when using it in a [[ rem reference.

On a similar note, why is there not an explicit count of the amount of portals that point to a rem like there are for tags and references in the top right of a rem? Would be nice to have the ability to view them all or a combination from the icons rather than zooming into a rem to open both portals each time.

@UMNiK That is a great idea! Actually pretty obvious in retrospect: The icons symbolize the number of backlinks aka where a rem is used. And portals are a kind of backlink. This makes it much more consistent.

(I bookmarked this for next month. Depending on the state of RemNote then I will make a FR/issue then if it’s not implemented yet.)

I thought the “In x Folder” means these folders each has a portal to current rem too.

But I realize lately there seems to be a bug. This happened to a rem I was working on, I looked at the “in 1 folder”, it points to another rem, in that rem there is no portal. I have encountered this invisible portal issue several times but I’m not sure what triggered it.

It would be great if Portals can be implemented to behave the same way as tags and wikilinks.

@hannesfrank Have you by now discovered the meaning of “This Document is in X Folders”? I have a document supposedly (by this search portal) in another document, and always get bothered when try to practice the Queue filtering that other document (cards from this supposedly linked other document also appear in the queue).
