Ikiwiki descends the directory hierarchy looking for a -page that matches your link. - -For example, if FooBar/SubPage links to "OtherPage", ikiwiki will first -prefer pointing the link to FooBar/SubPage/OtherPage if it exists, next -to FooBar/OtherPage and finally to OtherPage in the root of the wiki. - -Note that this means that if a link on FooBar/SomePage to "OtherPage" -currently links to OtherPage, in the root of the wiki, and FooBar/OtherPage -is created, the link will _change_ to point to FooBar/OtherPage. On the -other hand, a link from BazBar to "OtherPage" would be unchanged by this -creation of a [[SubPage]] of FooBar. - -You can also specify a link that contains a directory name, like -"FooBar/OtherPage" to more exactly specify what page to link to. This is -the only way to link to an unrelated [[SubPage]]. - -You can use this to, for example, to link from BazBar to "FooBar/SubPage", -or from BazBar/SubPage to "FooBar/SubPage". - -You can also use "/" at the start of a link, to specify exactly which page -to link to, when there are multiple pages with similar names and the link -goes to the wrong page by default. For example, linking from -"FooBar/SubPage" to "/OtherPage" will link to the "OtherPage" in the root -of the wiki, even if there is a "FooBar/OtherPage". - -Also, if the wiki is configured with a userdir, you can link to pages -within the userdir without specifying a path to them. This is to allow for -easy linking to a user's page in the userdir, to sign a comment. These -links are checked for last of all. |
