link update on document move

Open CurtisGriceWSD3 opened this issue 2 months ago • 1 comments

Describe the feature you'd like

We are in a position where we are re-organizing a large number of pages. It would be nice if there was a built in function to search all existing pages for links that would be broken and update them anytime we move a page.

Describe the benefits this would bring to existing BookStack users

This would make re-organizing more straight forward without having to risk breaking docs.

Can the goal of this request already be achieved via other means?

using some sql magic, this can be done semi manually.

Have you searched for an existing open/closed issue?

  • [x] I have searched for existing issues and none cover my fundamental request

How long have you been using BookStack?

1 to 5 years

Hi @CurtisGriceWSD3, We do have functionality which should do this kind of thing since BookStack attempts to track and update cross-references between core content links.

There may be scenarios we've missed though. Do you have a specific scenario, using newly created pages/books/chapters/shelves that's reproducible?
