Breaking down a massive file

[KevinH]

Yes Sigil will not like that link to "#Tag" unless somewhere in the file a real destination for the link exists with an attribute id="Tag" in a case sensitive manner.
Sigil can not update already broken links. It needs to find that id attribute someplace and update it if it ends up inside a separate file.

So fix that first. If there is a real destination for that href, change the #Tag to properly point to it. If there is no destination for that link, remove the link to nowhere.

Once all your broken links are fixed, then Sigil will happily split this huge file into normal pieces at your inserted split markers.

But that Sigil feature requires good input (properly matched sources and destinations, else more links may get broken.

I don’t think it’s giving an error on the split itself…. It looks like it’s just warning you that your links aren’t set up just right and they will/might break when you split the pages (because your target would be on a different page). There should be an option to continue anyway (if you don’t care about the links) then you can fix them afterwards. If you only have a few links that is not that big of a problem.

Have you already merged the document into one large file? You can also run a report in Sigil and one of the options on the left side shows the status of all your links.

EDIT: What Kevin said…
