Hi
We just introduced XWIKI in our company and I have noticed that there are
quite a few problems with links.
Among other we have solutions, customers, faq, wiki users...
It would be nice have a complete xref of which page references which other
page, so we can see (among other):
- which customer uses which solutions.
- which wiki user was responsible for which project...
My idea was to use links for this purpose, but I notices the following
problems:
- If the link is contained in a macros like {{warn}}[[target]]{{/warn}},
the backreference is not reported on the target page .
- If the link is contained in an object like {{include
document="FAQCode.FAQSheet"/}}, the backreference is not reported on the
target page.
- If I rename the target page, the links are broken in the two cases
above.
I have screenshots documenting my tests
Have I missed something in XWIKI? Is there another way to solve my
problem?
You haven't missed anything. It's just impossible to be perfect since scripts can
generate links too.
And yes, those issues have been raised already and need someone to look at them
(contributors who submit pull requests/patches are most welcome ;)).

@XWIKI developper: do you have a schedule to correct
this?
I don't know any committer working actively on this ATM.
Thanks
