If there are many same backlink in one paragraph, only the first backlink would be highlight in “linked mentions” pane. (version for testing: 0.8.4, PS: I can’t see my insider badge…)

Steps for reproduction:

  1. In any note use three same backlinks, like picture.

  2. Jump to the backlink note, and only see the backlink 1 and 3 in linked mentions pane.

Conclusion: whatever how many same backlinks are in a paragraph, linked mentions only show the first one repeatly.

I encounter a problem with the newest version of 0.8.4.
Firstly, I try to test the new funciton using two pages. I write something in page of test1 about page of test2, and then I try to see what happens in test2. And then , I found it was werid. This is test2’s Backlinks.

Above the picture, we can look several items having same contents. But that’s not true.
Let’s start to see the page of test1.

You can see this test1 page doesn’t have any same items.
So I think that’s the problem and I wish it would be modified. And Obsidian is the best note I believe. Thanks for the author and team working for development of Obsidian.

Well if [[link contents]] only show in a paragraph but not multi-iterms, do you think the advantage is belonging to Roam Research? why we use this kind of unfavorable machenism like Markdown? I think this point deserves modifying.

Will be fixed in 0.8.5.
