Links within notes

[soralsokal 22]

I found plenty of article and tutorials on table of content. But they all seem to only consider it for many notes.

 

I would link the table of contents to be in one note only. Anyone know if thats possible?

[jefito 5,533]

In terms of internal links like HTML anchors? Not possible in Evernote at this time.

[soralsokal 22]

Ok, maybe it will one day. Thank you for your reply

[jefito 5,533]

The interesting thing is that anchors are allowed in the underlying HTML subset that Evernote uses to represent its note contents. But no Evernote client that I am aware of takes advantage of that, at least so far.

I don't have time to look at it extensively for the moment, but if it does what I think it does, this feature will be a HUGE help for me and many others who have been wanting the ability to have a CLICKABLE Table of Contents in long Notes with large amounts of text. I wonder why it hasn't been mentioned in the 6 or 7 months I've be active on the forums? I can especially see it be most beneficial for students with their study notes!

I'll be testing it out as soon as I can and will report my findings in a new thread. However, that could mean as little as a day or two or as much as a few months. I can't make definitely plans for anything as my body frequently refuses to cooperate (MS), so if someone else wants to take on, please do. And let us know what you learn please!

Thank you, SoralSokal (sp?) for mentioning this. I greatly appreciate it! :)

I have to wonder whether this actually makes the TOC items clickable, at least to jump to other locations in a note. That would need to be supported by the UI, and as far as I know, that doesn't work: I tried constructing one by hand in the ENML Editor, but it's also very possible that I didn't code it correctly, either. It'd be good to know whether it was, for sure.

The other thing is that I don't follow the 3rd-party Evernote tools market all that closely, which is why I don't know about this product. I'm sure that there are some nice ones out there, but mostly don't integrate well, and they just seem to get more in my way than I'd like -- I prefer to use the tools that are a part of Evernote for day-to-day usage.

Probably better to continue in this thread, since it's all related, and probably best to keep things together. Or consider posting in the 3rd-party forum, just down the hall, which is available for that. Good luck.

Wordsgood,

 

EATags It’s a free suscription service that provides extra features for Evernote® users.

 

You must asign the special tag 'eat.toc' to the note when you want the Table of Contents, and add #, ##, ### etc. before each title, subtitle, etc. in the note.

 

After the sync, the service insert the table at the top of the note.

 

Because it is a web service, works on any device.

Interesting. I probably just bollixed the HTML code. Might have to try it myself.

Thanks!!

[rbianchi 55]

Wordsgood & jefito:

 

Try it & let me know if you have problems.

 

Some notes:

- The insertion of the TOC may not be immediately after the first sync.

- After the insertion of the TOC, the 'eat.toc' is removed, and an 'eaten: [toc]' is added to indicate that the note was processed.

- If after the insertion of the TOC you change the note, adding and/or removing titles, then it is necessary to add again the 'eat.toc' tag (and remove the eaten: [toc])

 

Also see the web site for other features, like inserting math formulas with LaTex.

I have no relationship with the EATags developers, and I'm new to eatags, so any problems would probably best to contact them directly.

Hi. Please don't take offense to this, but I'm about as tech clueless as one can get and I had two thoughts after reading your note:

1) Yes, to me at least, it's pretty clear that the link allow you to navigate from the TOC to headings within the same note.

2) If you just click on the link provided a few posts back in this thread, it will take you directly to the EATags service site, where everything is explained with text, graphics and How To videos, far better than anyone could explain it here. Just go have a look yourself.

There are two options:

 

Option 1:

If you add the 'eat.toc.notebook' tag to an NEW note in a notebook, then after sync you get a TOC (with link clickables) to ALL notes in that notebook.

It is similar to Cmd-A to select all notes, right-clik for copy links and paste in an empty note.

 

Option 2:

If you add the 'eat.toc' tag to an EXISTING note in a notebook, then after sync you get a TOC (with link clickables) to all titles that have #,##, etc. in the SAME note (Each # is an indentation)

 

If in a note you have:

 

#Title 1

  bla, bla, bla

##Title 2

 bla, bla, bla

###text3

 

then after sync you will get:

 

Title 1  <-- clickable links

  Title 2

     Text3

----------------------------

#Title 1

  bla, bla, bla

##Title 2

 bla, bla, bla

###text3

Hello everyone,

 

+1000000000000 for this feature
 
Please!! Add this feature soon! Our notes are bigger even more and it is super complicated go directly to a subsection in it.

Why aren't they a "menu format" to add H1, H2, H3 titles, and then get a table of content automatically from there.

 

 

 

 

[DutchPete 246]

To get a TOC for all notes within a notebook you don't need a 3rd party app, EN has that feature itself.

EN does not have a TOC feature for titles within a note, which is where EAtags comes in handy.

Thank you for your answer,

 

I think it is not really friendly, also, because you can't define styles like Titles  (h1, h2, h3...) to style your notes. Is really rare that EN doesn't have this feature, for me is essential. 

[DutchPete 246]

@rbianchi: do you know if there is a limit to the number of times a note can be processed by EATags? I ask this because I am still experimenting & noticed that after amending a note a couple of times & successfully readmitting for processing, EATags stopped processing that note.

[Bryanne 58]

Hi all,

 

Evernote is brilliant - could not navigate life without it!!

 

A feature that I feel is dearly needed and would be tremendous to have is the ability to create an anchor point in notes.

 

eg if I am working on a lengthy note and constantly referring to other notes at the same time I want the ability to specify a point where I am working in that note so I can go straight back to it.

 

Also, when you open a note it goes straight to the start of the note. You always have to scroll down to the bottom of the note to add to it.

 

Many thanks for any comments. 

[Metrodon 2,155]

This has been discussed before a couple of times. No real indication whether Evernote are interested or not.

[DutchPete 246]

What constantly surprises me about Evernote is that, although it is essentially a digital filing cabinet, they encourage users to use it for other things as well. But they don't adapt it sufficiently to make anything else than a digital filing cabinet.

 

When I started using EN I became very enthusiastic about it & was constantly looking at ways to extend its functionality. Example: ne of my new passions is journalling, which I started doing in Evernote but because of its poor text editor I now use another app.

 

So, 1 1/2 years after having embraced Evernote, I have come to the conclusion described in the 1st paragraph & only use it as a (semi)permanent store of my documents & records. Having said that, it is very good for that & things like the Web Clipper & Clearly are the best around. Even OneNote's web clipper is nothing more than a screenshot taker, therefore pathetic compared to Evernote's web clipper.

[Metrodon 2,155]

I think the rationale behind Evernote is to provide a very good general tool that can be applied across multiple use cases. With a little imagination you can nearly always create a workaround.

In this case, you could use a nonsense text string as the anchor and then search the note.

In Windows, if you open your main note in it's own window (double click it), you can reference your other notes in the main EN window and when you return to the prime note you will be on the same "page", or if the window is visible, you can click on the spot.  FWIW as a workaround.

[Metrodon 2,155]

The thing with workarounds is that they work more or less, but it is long-winded and after a while it becomes a PITA. But, for the patient & not-fussy, it works & is good enough.

I also agree this would be very useful.  Until then I try to keep individual notes on the short side to avoid excessive scrolling and then use an outline note with links to the others to collect the information if needed.

I use this work around, less for the anchoring more for the ease of getting back to the main note.  Since I'm a two monitor user, the primary note is just sitting there and I can flit through the other notes without the "where exactly did I put that......" issues.  

[Bryanne 58]

All good comments - thanks guys. I can use some of these.

[Ataraxius 3]

I experimented with this for a while. EAtags puts a nice TOC of tagged note links at the top of a note --much like a Header.

 

However, from what I can see, it does NOT update the TOC in the existing note dynamically when I add a new note with the specified tag.

 

This operation could be done entirely within EN without EAtags. Just create a TOC note and then merge it with the target note in which you want the TOC to appear in.  Or.... just copy/paste the TOC into the target note,   However, this still does not solve the problem of dynamic updating.

 

The only solution to a dynamically generated TOC that I can see is to create a new TOC note each time you need it. The problem here is that you inevitably wind up with dozens of largely redundant TOC notes on, say, Broccoli or Asparagus that may or may not contain all of the current listings for that tag. This creates issues with version management. This also does not play well for accessing an up-to-date TOC as external or local links such as a hyperlink a mind map or other external application.

 

Does anyone have any other ideas on how to generate a dynamically updated TOC in EN???

[Jared H 1]

I found this thread because I was searching for the possibility of using anchors to link to sections within a note... just wanted to cast my vote for the feature in case the development team is considering.  Considering everything else EN does, it seems like a simple thing to implement.  Until then, I guess I'll try scattering unique search terms across my longer notes.

[LucaBen 7]

Many people like me use Evernote to save topics, links, and short snippets of text, on a few curated notes rather than importing a large amount of notes and then get an overwhelming amount of information that makes it difficult to retrieve the desired information later.

What is really missing though is an easy way to quickly jump through sections within the notes that I have. The way Evernote works right now, makes it easy to novagate through notes but not within.

 

What I would really need is the possibility to select a header/portion of text, or just a point in the note and save it as a bookmark within the note, then have a navigation tree somewhere (a sort of table of contents/note outline) where I can see a list of the bookmarks within that note and quickly jump to the desired one.

 

I would be willing to get a premium account if such funtionality was available.

[gazumped 8,491]

There's no way (yet) to jump around inside a note,  but there are good reasons for making lots of smaller notes rather than one large one,  including this situation.  If you made lots of separate notes with meaningful titles you could select all notes and create a TOC note which would effectively allow you to jump from one 'paragraph' to the next within your collection of notes.  You could also save searches to the same effect.

[LucaBen 7]

That's a very good recommendation indeed, thank you very much for this useful tip, I do appreciate! I still like the idea of keeping the amounts of notes to a minimum and have some structure instead of generating hundreads of them, but I could, let's say, split each big note into chunks of 5-6 separate notes and then create a TOF for that note. The only drawback is that you can't scroll, but it's still a reasonable solution. Saved searches is also something interesting that I was not aware of. It's great that there's someone like you who knows the software in detail. Thanks

[Frank.dg 1,385]

The only drawback is that you can't scroll...

 

Well, you can, sort of... if you use the arrow keys on your keyboard once you've selected a note in the Note List, you can "flip" from one note to the other by hitting the up or down arrows. If you have your notes in order and they are in bite-size portions, depending,  it might be very similar to scrolling... So try that in tandem with @Gazumped's suggestion. You can do a similar thing on tablets... except that you have to tap the next note in sequence. You can have the note list and note panel open simultaneously on tablet. To expand your note panel a tad more, you can hide the Left Panel on desktop (F10 on Windows). That may help to see more content in a note on one screen without needing to scroll while flipping through notes using the Note List, depending on the structure (line breaks) within your note. 

 

Edit: Almost forgot... If you access presentation mode you can scroll from one note to another when you reach the foot of one note. Depending on your platform, there are various ways to do this (right arrow on Windows).  

[Mike Vila 9]

I cold handedly agree with Bryanne, Evernote PLEASE work on this feature! I tried to use the new Table of Contents feature but it has problems when I share the link with non-Evernote users. It would be great to hyperlink to those points way down the document, hope it's on your list. Would also love to see Evernote create a UserVoice account so we can vote on what we think is most important to give you a point of reference on what to add next.

Hi all,

 

I know how to create a table of contents that links to other notes, but I want to create a table of contents just within a document (i.e., a ToC that jumps to the headings within the existing note, not to other notes).

 

Is this possible?

 

Many thanks.

[gazumped 8,491]

Hi.  AFAIK this is not possible;  you can link to notes,  but not to headings,  or bookmarks.  You could set up keywords at various points in a document and jump with searches - but that's not embeddable in a document.  You could also use a document type that includes this sort of linkability - Word documents or PDFs for example - and attach that to your note.

Hello!

I've seen a few posts about these, but I'm curious as to if any of the Evernote team has address or made comment to whether or not we can look forward to these. Below are a few things I am wondering about:

 

Anchor Points: Inner note linking, jump points-- whatever. It's super crucial to organizing within documents.

Shared Font Color Assignments: When you have a shared file/document/stack it would be amazing to be able to assign a color for each user (not have to select the font color every time you want to type)

Stack/Organization Colors: Neither here nor there, really, but might be nice to be able to color organize notes within notebooks per relevance.

I'd be very interested to have this TOC feature added as well. I maintain a "runbook" for a group and am looking for an easy way to have an external, but securable, way to have it available off the company network. 

What I use right now is Confluence, where like it was mentioned in previous posts in this thread, it procedurally generates a table of contents from the H1, H2, H3 tags in the page.

Hi

 

After few days with eatags, I give up

Not convenient at all 

TOC appears with a big lag and every time I add a new item, the links are going away.

Very disapointing

This is a very, very, long-standing HTML feature, and oh so very useful for long notes.

Two features I see essential for long (more than one page/screen) notes:

1. Anchors/bookmarks
2. Collapsible sections

Both have been available in web pages since the early days of the web (late 1990's).

ATTN:  Evernote/ @Jackolicious, @SoftwareMarcus, @Justin Street:   Come on, this is the very definition of productivity!

[Alan Rew 21]

Having anchors within notes is something I would find really useful. I often end up with long notes that need parts to be addressable. Adding artificial strings to search for is a bit crude - an HTML anchor, or equivalent is really what I need for this use case.

Splitting up a long note into multiple notes would in many cases add other inconveniences that would more than cancel out the added convenience of note-level links.

Please add this feature!

I find this to be the best work around in the absence of internal hyperlinks.

It also resolves a few issues

• Lengthy notes are problematic; chance of corruption; searches are less effective.  For example, in the case of a journal, I find it better to keep separate days instead on an entire month or year
• I can simulate collapsing and expanding sections by using links to sub-documents

Good point but a big downside I see is that once older notes are updated, sorting/sequencing/organization can be problematic and unpredictable.

Thanks for sharing.

It is a workaround, but, iMO, not a very good one.  Won't work for me.

• It's just like opening up a new web page
• You can't the the surrounding context of the previous/next section
• Navigation is cumbersome

Anchors are basic, long-standing HTML behavior.  There's really no excuse for Evernote not to implement.

For everyone here who wants this feature, it's available already through a standalone java program here:

I love Evernote and use it extensively everyday.

One key feature I would like to use in Evernote is the ability create or link words or tags within a note

You highlight a word or phrase or create a tag to link to another topic within the same note.

A simple example is a TOC or table of contents within a note linking details in the note with related details in the same note.

I know I can create another note but then I end up with to many notes.

Jumping around between notes is counterproductive when you are creating research notes with many links.

Every time I create a note, I  end up searching online to see if this is possible.

Please seriously consider this since you already have the know how to do this

with your copy a note link feature.

There is a workaround for what you are asking for here:

https://discussion.evernote.com/topic/83621-create-jump-links-in-your-notes-with-elin

Run the program. give the "Jump name" a (hidden) name that doesn't conflict with any other words/word combinations in the note. Give the "Link text" the name you want displayed as your link, and give "Destination text" the name of the header you want to jump to in the text.

After you have generated the text, you copy the first line and paste it into the note where you want the link. And the second line where you want the link to jump.

The reason why this works is because the second line which looks like plain text, actually has a hidden code in it which contains the hidden "Jump name". The link is therefore searching for the hidden "jump name" and not for the plain text.

It's a bit cumbersome to do, but at least it's a choice for when you really need it. You can also create a note "template" and just copy that for later uses.

I doubt this will ever be implemented as a feature in the client, mainly because of how EN relies on everything to work across platforms.

Hi

Not convenient at all

Nothing is ever convenient about using EN. Too many work arounds. Yep, sucks that EN still does not have this feature. This is why it's hard for me to take EN seriously. Did it not occur to the developers at all that people may want to do research in EN?! I use EN for this purpose and I use one note for my conclusions and commentary on research from other notes I keep in EN but it's a pain having to scroll through the note when it would be much easier just to have a TOC for the note itself.

I'm using Evernote more and more to build systems documentation and having the ability to link to an anchor Evernote would be tremendously helpful.  I'm surprised this functionality was not included from the start.  I'm not interested in work-a-rounds or having to edit the raw files to add this manually, it's simply to cumbersome.

+1 - Add URL Anchors to Evernote.

Thanks

As I mentioned in the above posts already, I really need this feature. How can Google implement it in such a tiny tool like Keep, but EN is unable to handle it?

If possible for third party applications, then it should also be possible for Evernote...

+1 please add anchors or some sort of visual shortcuts. Need that to navigate large notes.

(Probably been said before in this or the other threads,  but my way to navigate large notes is not to have them.  Treat note titles like chapter or paragraph headings and split the whole thing into several notes held together by a Table of Contents note..  just sayin')

That is a workaround that many of us have been using.  But it is NOT a real replacement to having anchors/bookmarks in the same note.

Even for relatively short notes (2-3 pages/screens) this would be a great help, a great feature, to have a TOC at the top of the note, with links to details lower down in the same Note.

Kudos.

How come that evernote, a platform that offers extensive presentation modes, chat features and an Atlas(what?) does not support a seemingly basic operation like inline table of contents. To put things in perspective, how should i navigate a book with 500 pages if i had no table of contents? My two cents, very slowly, just like navigation in evernote right now without this feature.

Please add this as a free or premium feature, i don't mind paying for this.

Thank you.

I sometimes habe long notes. If we got markdown or styles an imdex function inserting an index composed of headlines and anchors to jump there would be helpful. I know, i could split up to several notes, but I dont want to...

[JMichaelTX 4,081]

This has been requested many times before.  You can do a search on "anchor" to find these threads/requests.

You may want to add your voice and vote to one of these, for example, here's one:

Have a look at Evernote Batch.  Various features including "Table of Contents - create a TOC for any bolded text in checked note(s). Links are created to that bolded text."
