pg111 2 Posted November 25, 2018 Share Posted November 25, 2018 Hi everybody, As I often have a bundle of related notes about the same topic (that often come from Wikipedia) and some of them have links that refer to another captured web page, I was wondering if Evernote would allow me to easily and quickly update those links so they point to the other captured page. For instance, I captured the flwg page: https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cycle_de_Fondation, which is about Asimov's famous trilogy. The page contains three links to each of the three books the trilogy consists of; each link refers to a single web page I also captured to Evernote. When I click one of those links I start my browser to open the corresponding page from the web. I would rather like to open the corresponding page from my Evernote notebook. Is there a way to do so from within Evernote quickly and easily? Many thanks in advance for any help. Cheers. Patrick Link to comment
Level 5* DTLow 5,736 Posted November 25, 2018 Level 5* Share Posted November 25, 2018 The bundle of related notes can be linked by a master Table of Contents note, and note links>> >>I was wondering if Evernote would allow me to easily and quickly update those links so they point to the other captured page. I wouldn't advise altering captured web pages. The Evernote editor is not the proper tool to use. The actual html code is like this <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cycle_de_Fondation#mw-head" It is do-able. As per @CalS, select the link, right click > Link > Edit Great book choice. Thanks for the flashback Link to comment

Don’t know about quickly and easily, but you can edit the hyperlink and replace the web link with the note link. Basically copy the internal link of the target note, go to the other note and right click edit the hyperlink and paste the internal link. FWIW. Link to comment

Thanks for the flashback Thanks for the answer but does it mean that when I click a link in Page A I'll open the relevant note in my bundle instead of the current, actual web page on the Web?

It's faster and easier than editing HTML code of the note. Link to comment

pg111 2 Posted November 25, 2018 Author Share Posted November 25, 2018 Thanks for your help but unfortunately my Windows EN does not display such a dialog box. Would you be so kind as to detail how you get it by detailing each step for it? When I right-click on more than one notes I get the flwg dialog box: I cannot see any option to create a TOC Master Note. Many thanks in advance. Link to comment

Someone else will have to explain the ToC feature in Windows In your screenshot I see "Copy Internal Links" Select this, then paste into a new note. You have your ToC Link to comment

You have your ToC Thanks for your help. I think I will do as you suggest until someone using Windows can direct me to the right option. For now I will just create an empty note and paste my notes' internal links there. Link to comment

Thanks but I'm sorry. I have selected several notes and I still cannot get such a window. What I get is the flwg: What am I missing? Many thanks in advance. Link to comment

Many thanks in advance You don't have the note panel open best I can tell from the screen shot. Press Ctrl+F11 to open the note panel, this is a toggle hot key. Or View - Note Panel. The dialog box will appear there when you select multiple notes. Sorry I didn't notice it with the first screen shot. Oops. Link to comment
