I got the same problem with Craft 5.4.10.1 and Hyper 2.1.2. @engram-design mentioned, it was fixed in #196. However, this was for Craft 4.11.x It would be nice if there will be a fix soon (:

I got the same problem with Craft 5.5.5 and Hyper 2.2.1. Would it be possible to fix it please. Thanks.

Things seem to be working correctly for me in either Craft 4 or Craft 5. Links are only propagated if the owner entry is considered fresh, which is the same behaviour as standalone element fields.

For example, if you're adding links to an existing entry, it's not going to propagate those links to each other site and match against the chosen element for that site. It'll only display this behaviour if you're creating a new entry.

Thanks for confirming what you're seeing with that video, very helpful. I'll do my best to replicate that!

Hi! Have you had time to look into this? We just found this bug in one of our Craft sites too.
