Steps to reproduce
- Make new note with an internal link inside (
[[filename]]
syntax) - Export to PDF
- Click the link in the PDF
Expected result
It should open the note in Obsidian.
Actual result
It doesn’t open with Obsidian but gets googled in the default browser (Windows doesn’t have any “app://” protocol registered).
Environment
Windows 10
Obsidian v0.9.11
Additional information
The PDF link tries to use the app protocol. It follows this format: app://obsidian.md/filename
(no file extension).
I tried to switch:
-
app://
forobsidian://
-
app://obsidian.md
forobsidian://
This is the error message:
Thus, I tried to switch:
-
app://obsidian.md/filename
forobsidian://vault name
-
app://obsidian.md/filename
forobsidian://obsidian.md/vault name
The same error pops up.
In my opinion, Obsidian should stick to obsidian://
protocol. And, well, I recommend fixing the handling of these urls.
