Reference a page by name without linking to it

Questions & Help

  1. You want both pages (“Fred” & “Fred’s Castle”) to be renamed at the same time with renaming “Fred”. That is not possible.

  2. Alternative way is to have a hierarchy “Fred” & “Fred/Castle”. Renaming “Fred” renames “Fred/Castle” also. But “Fred/Castle” have a not so nice readability (is it important for you?)

  3. Another alternative: with the help of properties and 🏛 Full House Templates plugin:
    2024-08-16 03.19.43
    Note a bug with a cache in Logseq after page renaming.
    Note: the content from a page “Fred’s Castle” was not moved to new page.

    Text from demo:

    person:: [[Fred]]  
plain — {{renderer :view, "c.page.propsRefs.person"}}

ref — {{renderer :view, "c.page.props.person"}}

plain — {{renderer :view, "c.page.propsRefs.person + '\'s Castle'"}}

ref — {{renderer :view, "ref(c.page.propsRefs.person + '\'s Castle')"}}

:exclamation: Also take a look here for inline properties implementation.
