Local link parsing error

Bug graveyard
1

I’m not sure if it is related only to local server links ( Using local server share links - Help - Obsidian Forum), but if there is an underscore in the link, then \ that is before the underscore, gets missing, eg:

[_closed-protocols](file:///\\\fileshare\shared\...\data-submissions\_closed-protocols)

link will be rendered in preview mode as:

[_closed-protocols](file:///\\\fileshare\shared\...\data-submissions_closed-protocols)

You can temporarily solve the problem by adding extra \:

[_closed-protocols](file:///\\\fileshare\shared\...\data-submissions\\_closed-protocols)

2

You should use %5C in place of \.

3

Sure, but this should be done by Obsidian at the time of drag-and-drop of the link.

Meybe we fixed this in the next relase

That’s an odd character to preface a link a name with, what is your use case? You need the underscore for sorting, for example?

Yes, I use underscores to make that file or folder to appear at the top.
