Additional information

It would be really awesome If you can jump to headers that has spaces in Obsidian(Markdown) and if the reproduce is still to little to be understood somehow.

  1. Copy and paste this Ultimate Privacy Guide by All0cation from Github to Obsidian.
  2. Click any jumpers that has space in the Contents and It won’t jump.

As an alternative, you can use [[page#jump to me]] to get the right result. Though with that markdown document you linked, you obviously can’t do that.

If I use that, Github and other markdown stuff won’t be able to parse it. Using:

[Jump to me](#jump-to-me)

#### Jump to me
Good job!

Seems to work in markdownlivepreview.com and platforms such as Github, Gitlab & etc

true, there is definitely an issue, just suggesting a compromise.

This is not a big. We don’t support that format. Check out the docs.

But this feature will be really useful for people who uses Obsidian as a markdown editor for their Github & etc.
