blablabl <a id="ref-1579-7-backlink" class="ref-link" href="#ref-1579-7">(see chapter 7)</a> blablabla
Anchor with backlink in chapter 7:
<a id="ref-1579-7" class="ref-anchor" href="#ref-1579-7-backlink">(back to chapter 5)</a> Blablabla
But how would you handle the case of 1 anchor, and many links to it, so the reader understands, where to go?
Code:
Link to anchor in chapter 8:
blablabl <a id="ref-1579-7a-backlink" class="ref-link" href="#ref-1579-7">(see chapter 7)</a>
Link to anchor in chapter 10:
blablabl <a id="ref-1579-7b-backlink" class="ref-link" href="#ref-1579-7">(see chapter 7)</a>
Anchor with backlink in chapter 7:
<a id="ref-1579-7" class="ref-anchor" href="#??????">(?????)</a> Blablabla
I also have footnotes, which are referenced twice ...
What’s a good solution for this?

They way I get around this is split them into chapters in the endmatter notes section, e.g.
Chapter 01
blablabl (and have unique back link from here)
Chapter 02
blablabl
