Link-check from within the editor

[warbe-maker]

Is there any way to perform a Link-Check from within the editor? I was looking for a menu-item but couldn't find one. I would be happy if there's any other means available to do this within the editor but I couldn't find anything in the help documentation.Sorry in case I've just overlooked something.

No there's no such thing, although that might be interesting to think about in the future.

You can Ctrl-Click links to navigate - that's effectively your link check 😄

I've been thinking about this a bit and played around with finding links.

Haven't quite figured out how to display those links.

What I would like to see is:

• List of all links grouped by success and failure links
• Links should navigate to the location they're referenced
• Links should also have an option to navigate:
  • navigate to Web links
  • images should preview for local links

This sounds pretty promising. The lust of links with a passed or failed state is probably the best one can get  Kind regardsW. Rauschenberger ***@***.*** 10. Dez. 2024, 01:25 von ***@***.***:

So I have an implementation of this working. Still a bit rough but the core functionality is there.

Some features:

• Keeps in sync with document while active
• Tracks changes as you type
• Reloads when switching documents
• Explicit refresh button to force full reload
• Checks Web Http, Local file and document links
• Click to navigate to link reference in document
  (from there you can control click to navigate link)
• On Tools -> Check Document Links
• Command Palette: Check Document Links

There are still some UI oddities and the refresh is in need of some optimizations to avoid checking links that have not changed.

This looks definitely even more promising than expected. A great job done already. I'm looking forward to an update which includes this feature. Thank you so much.
