When moving/renaming a Page, there are some limitations that can be resolved by administrators:
- For references to be updated during a Page rename, backlinks must be enabled (from the xwiki.cfg file). Backlinks are enabled by default, but if they were disabled, they will not be updated.
- Backlinks are saved when a Page is saved. In a clean XWiki database, backlinks might not yet be stored. In this case, an administrator can refresh all links by executing the following code:
$xwiki.refreshLinks()
