Problem Statement: WFP team has been adding links to subheadings of other articles. Since our current implementation doesn’t support searching for subheadings in the "Insert Link" modal, the customer had been manually copying subheading links from the Knowledge Base site. As a result, these manually added links did not include the necessary code, leading to broken or incomplete translations. Migration Plan: For default language articles – All absolute links will be converted to relative links. This ensures that if the article is machine translated in the future, the links will work correctly. This update will apply on all the versions of the article. If an older version is forked, it will still contain relative links. For other language versions of the same article– Absolute links will be updated to include the correct workspace and language identifiers. This will direct users to the correct language version of the article. However, if the link points to a subheading, it will not scroll to the specific section. Text with hyperlinks not being translated: This behaviour is controlled by a project-level flag: toDisableTranslationInHyperLinks. This flag only applies at the time of link insertion, not during the translation process. Moving forward, enabling this flag will allow translations for new hyperlink text, but existing hyperlinks will remain untranslated unless manually updated. (This flag will be enabled as part of this migration) Limitation: Our current translation process does not translate header fragments (i.e., links pointing to specific subheadings). This means that even if we proceed with the proposed migration, the links may redirect to the correct article in the appropriate language, but they will not navigate to the exact paragraph or subheading. To address the issue of links pointing to specific subheadings in the long term, we need a separate feature or enhancement to direct users to the exact subheading in translated articles. A robust and foolproof solution must be identified for this.
