Provide the ability to link to a specific location in a note

[EverNoteBulldog 2]

EverNote is great, but lacks the ability to link to a specific location WITHIN a note. I use OneNote desktop at work and this feature is a great way to connect ideas together across noes without duplicating content OR having to re-build context for yourself each time.

Yep - I would like that too.

This feature has been requested many times and for quite a while -- so don't hold your breath!!!

This request, backlinks, and an internal table of contents would be great additions (and all seem to kind of go together).

In the indefinite meantime, a "workaround" (or different way to think about it), if you will, is to make notes shorter rather than longer notes and link to the note itself. I mean, we can go up to 100,000 notes. An added benefit of a shorter note is that if you title it uniquely enough, you can find it super quick from anywhere with the 'Switch To' command.

Check out version 10.51.7... mentioned backlinks!

I think this is an error. It is coming but possibly not in 10.51.7

I don't believe this specific thread is the same thing as backlinks. Backlinks show you other notes that link to the note you are currently in. This thread is about linking to a specific header (or other location) in a given note -- not to just the note itself.

Ok. My apologies. At least Backlinks is a start. If they can get collaboration editing then I'm hoping Location Linking is not that far away.

i would link Location Linking too....

🤦🏼‍♂️ Ooof - apologies myself. I see that I'm the one that mentioned back-links first with regards to it being related to what OP was requesting.
