I just forgot to say that I was writing the page using markdown syntax. When I convert it back to rich text format the function works.</p>
<p>But can't I use the functions like Encryption and link back when using markdown? Maybe I should write everything in rich text format?</p></div>Anntag:support.primatelabs.com,2011-01-31:Comment/449766302018-03-26T22:04:23Z2018-03-26T22:04:23ZWhy can't I "Link Selection to Page"<div><p>Hi,</p>
<p>Thanks for reaching out to us about this. The "Link Selection to New Page" and page-level encryption features aren't currently supported on Markdown pages, though we are investigating potential support for them in the future.</p>
<p>For the kind of link that you're making, I would recommend typing the name of the page you want to link to (which will automatically be formatted as a link to that page) or create an alias for the page you want to link to. You can find more information about aliases <a href="https://www.voodoopad.com/documentation/aliases/">here</a>.</p>
<p>Depending on what you want to use VoodooPad for, either Rich Text or Markdown may be the best option. If you're not sure, I would recommend using Rich Text pages. While Markdown formatting can be very powerful for some applications, it currently isn't compatible with some helpful options in VoodooPad.</p>
<p>If you have any other questions, please don't hesitate to let me know.</p>
<p>All the best,<br>
