Automatically Updating Links

Explanation

When you move/rename, or delete a Page, XWiki can automatically update links and references pointing to that Page. This helps keep the documentation consistent and avoids broken links.

By default, the "Update links" option is enabled and ensures that all backlinks are updated to the renamed Page and its child Pages will be automatically updated to reflect the new location.

This includes content links and macro parameter values. You can use "upcoming links" to preview all backlinks for the Page.
