[Bug]: Instant Task Convert breaks links #1109
Description
Bug Description
Suggestion:
- When instantly converting a checklist item into a TaskNote
- put links in the new TaskNote's body
- keep the link text (if any) in the title
How to reproduce:
- Given a checklist item with a link in it,
- Convert that item to be a TaskNote,
- Expectation: the link will still exist somewhere
- Observation: the link has been sanitized and is no longer a link.
Example
- // Before
- - [ ] Alfred: Make quick way to change display resolution ([Resolution Changer](https://alfred.app/workflows/firefingers21/resolution-changer/))
+ // After
+ - [[Alfred Make quick way to change display resolution (Resolution Changer(httpsalfred.appworkflowsfirefingers21resolution-changer))-3]]

Instant conversion now extracts markdown links and wikilinks from the converted title, keeps the display text in the task title, and appends the original links to the new task body under
Source links:. That covers the requested behavior from this report and appears to have been fixed by the later link-preservation work around #1365. Focused tests around converted link preservation are passing. This looks resolved now. Thanks @merchako for the clear repro and expected behavior.
