sigil changes target of <a href>

JEFF2020 · 09-29-2020, 06:03 AM

Sigil 1.3.0 is changing the target of a link when importing xhtml files:
There are links pointing to another xhtml e.g. <a href="../Text/chap_009.xhtml#_Ref007659351"> already inserted in the original xhtml file.
When importing these files in Sigil the targets are automatically changed into something like <a href="../../project/20_OPS2/Epub/Text/chap_009.xhtml#_Ref007659351">. These new targets correspond to a folder on my local pc (win 10). So I have to replace these wrong targets using search/replace.
Suppose this is a bug since this is a new behaviour since sigil 1.3.0.
Any idea? Thanks.

Yes, a bug and already fixed in master. The fix will be in the next release.
