Link to an item
Copy a link to a single item on a board, then paste it into a note or another app to jump straight back to it.
Every item on a board can have its own link. Paste the link into another board, a notes app, a task manager, or anywhere else that accepts links, and opening it takes you straight to that item. Copy Link to Item is new in Corkulous 9.1.
Copy a Link
- Touch and hold an item, or right-click it on Mac. You can also tap a selected item to show its menu.
- Choose Copy Link to Item.
The link is now on the clipboard. It looks like this:
corkulous://Folder/Board?item=…Open a Link
Tap or click the link. Corkulous opens the board that holds the item, centers the item on screen at actual size, and selects it. This works whether or not Corkulous is already open.
To link from one item to another inside Corkulous, paste the link into a note as a Markdown link, for example [See the budget](corkulous://…).
What to Know
- Links follow the item. Moving the item, even into a sub-board of the same board, does not break the link.
- Renaming breaks links. A link includes the folder and board names, so renaming or moving the board breaks its links. This is also true of board links.
- Duplicates get new links. Items on a duplicated board are new items, so existing links still open the original.
- Deleted items. If the item is gone, the board opens and Corkulous tells you the linked item could not be found.
- One item at a time. The action is not shown when several items are selected, or for strings and lines.
Link to a Whole Board
To link to a board instead of an item, use Copy URL from the board’s menu on the home screen, or from a sub-board on a board. See Managing boards.
