Hi, is there a way to check incoming links to a DevColla page?
Suppose we'd like to modify page A, which will change this page's URL.
We'd like to check which other pages are referring to page A, because the old links might not work anymore, we'd like to find out the locations and update them.
(This is a use case when the links were NOT done by "insert link", but by directly copy-paste the URL. Such URL does not get automatically updated.)
Thanks!
There is not a good answer to this.
There is two issues here, one, you are asking for something to scan links to see if they are still good, and two update them when they are not.
You would have to use an external app to scan for broken links, there may be a Marketplace app that will do that, but none jump to mind. There is no built-in Confluence feature to identify broken links.
There is also no mass find and replace in confluence across pages. If it's just on one page, yes, edit the page and do a find and replace. If it's across pages then export to CVS, run a script to find and replace the links, then import back to Confluence.
There could be Marketplace apps that would make this easier, you would have to investigate.
