Internal Page Links missing

Hello,

I am running into an issue with my migrations.  When HTML pages are being migrated, the page links (to pages in the site that is being migrated) are not coming over to SharePoint.  In SharePoint they are links, but they do not have a href attribute, so they don't go anywhere.  When I look at the data preview from the tool I see that the links have their correct Notes:// links.  Document links are working great, as are external links; it's just internal page links that aren't.

I am using a publishing page (based off of the included 2013 publishing page).  Not sure if it matters, but I am using variations on my target site (doing separate migrations for each language).

Does anyone know what is going on or know of a configuration setting I may have missed?

  • Hello, I'm afraid I don't fully understand the details of the situation.
    It is a known limitation that SharePoint will drop notes:// links in HTML, and AFAIK the only way around this is using our Link Tracking Service included in Migrator for Notes to SharePoint. You write "Document Links are working great" - are you using the Link Tracking Service?
    Are you migrating from HTML in the Notes source? Normal apps, or QuickR/Quickplace? Do they show up in the Notes source as DocLinks, or as HTML links?
    Thanks, Peter
  • I was not using the Link Tracking Service (as it only mentioned Document Links which seem to work just fine without it). The Notes source has an innerHTML element that we are using. In Notes they show up as HTML links. Would the Link Tracking Service be able to handle the HTML links? Or is this something that I would have to manually fix after the migration?
  • The idea of the Link Tracking Service is to transfer DocLinks to the migrated targets in SharePoint. This should really not work without it.
    For non-migrated targets, the Link Tracking redirector page will create a notes:// link. I am not 100% sure this will help, but the symptoms you describe are exactly the same as migrating e.g. a DocLink from a Notes Document Library to a SharePoint custom list, and the Link Tracking Redirector page fixes that.
    Also there is an option in the Advanced Options "Process internal HTTP links as DocLinks" - if you enter the HTML target(s) that shows in Notes and have it translated to a DocLink, this may also help (as long as DocLinks get processed correctly).
