Tag spaces Markdown On Page reference links

General

I’m fairly new to markdown, TagSpaces markdown editor is almost perfect for me and my team to create the control system user documentation for a project I am leading. Although we could use HTML
The files and folder links work perfectly but Is there anyway in the TagSpaces Markdown parser to achieve the below simple HTML for navigating to sections in the same file from an index or do we have to create all as separate files.

<a href="#sec-one">Section 1</a>
<h2 id="sec-one">Section 1</h2>

Thanks for reporting this, we will enable internal linking in Markdown documents in the next release. There is no way currently to create an anchor manually, but you will be allowed to link to section names. So in your in your case the link should be like <a href="#section-1">Section 1</a>

Thanks for the prompt response, confirming that it is not currently supported. Google AI reports that TagSpaces markdown supports the use of HTML fragments for on page links to headings and sections but it’s not mentioned in TagSpace docs and when I tried using the HTML fragment code in the markdown editor I couldn’t get it to work

Hi Illan,
Thanks for putting the internal linking to headings in from version 6.10 it’s very useful.
Just a quick note on what I assume is some unintended behavior from the TagSpaces Markdown editor UI itself (I am using 6.11.4) If I type the following directly into the editor

[Three](#three)

The on page link doesn’t work, as the editor adds \ before and after the Square Bracket when the .md file is opened in Notepad++ it displays as

\[Three]\(#three)

If using the paste link function on existing text the link also doesn’t work, when the markdown is viewed in Notepad++ it displays as:

[Three](\(#three)\)

It’s not a big deal to fix, as the additional () and \ can be removed in Notepad++ and the links work fine in the Tagspaces markdown viewer but it is something you may want to look into for a future update.
