Links to anchors are destroyed

[albrechtd]

I noticed that the Visual Editor destroys links to anchors e.g. in a Wiki. Consider the following Textile example (the Wiki page is named Test-Editor):

h1. Test-Editor

h1. Sect. 1

h1. Sect. 2

Link to [[Test-Editor#Sect-1|other section]]

The link in the last line points to “Sect. 1”, which is very useful in lager documents (and which I use pretty much).

Now edit this Wiki page using the Visual Editor, edit something without touching the last line, and save it. Now the last line reads

Link to [[#Sect-1|other section]]

which is broken at least with Redmine 3.3.1 (still using Debian Oldstable…).

Would it be possible to preserve the Links to anchors?

BTW, a possibility to add Links to anchors using the Wiki Link dialogue would be really cool, too…

I wasn't aware of that patch, sorry… With it, the anchor links produced by the visual editor work perfectly! So, IMHO, you might consider this issue solved; please just add a remark to the Redmine issue above in your Readme.
However, as a feature request, a possibility to add more kinds of links from a selection dialogue would be extremely useful, including

• links to anchors,
• to projects,
• to forums,
• to changesets,
• maybe even to source files.

Hi @albrechtd

Thank you for your reporting.

I'm thinking about whether to fix this issue.
Please give me some time.

Because of no suitable APIs, it may be difficult to implement:

• to forums
• to changesets
• maybe even to source files
