Can Links Auto-Update When Page Moves?

[wesleyboar]

Problem

A link to a page must be update if the page is moved.

Upcoming changes (internal project) may move many pages.

Requests

• Links should auto-update if page moves.
• May require new way to write links.
• Should not break existing links.

Ideas

A. Install Plugin

Is there a plugin that can do this?

👍	mkdocs-autorefs	active
❔

B. Maintain Redirects

1. Install https://github.com/mkdocs/mkdocs-redirects.
2. When moving a page, always create a redirect.

C. Program a Solution
