Migrating to Logseq DB tip

I’ve been using Logseq for about 3 years. I have a large graph that I chose to move into the new version at the start of May.

Everything has been good since, and I do appreciate the speed with which the new version starts up, ready for new notes.

There was one problem that popped up: Initially when I started using Logseq, I didn’t have a flow, so ended up using the # for tags until I got the hang of the square brackets. When I moved to DB, it decided I wanted to keep the #Cars as the default link, not [[Cars]] - even though it handled all my other links and namespaces very well. I couldn’t figure out how to fix this in the “Library” page, and only recently realized why [[Cars]] just wasn’t working.

I have worked around the problem by modifying the name to [[Cars and Related]] which now works correctly in the Library and in the Journal editor. But doing a global search-replace for #Cars before migrating to DB would have helped the process.

I don’t know if this is a common problem, but it did drive me a little nuts for a while.
