Crossref over multiple files

[mingsu]

Crossref over multiple files is highly expected.

Considering such a use case, the Main text refer to a figure given by Supplementary material.

Is it possible to accomplish this? Below is a MWE.

cat main.qmd

---
title: main text
---


see [@fig-aaa].

cat supplementary.qmd

---
title: supplementary materia
---


see [@fig-aaa].

```{r}
#| label: fig-aaa
#| fig-cap: aaa
plot(1)
```

I believe this works for book projects, but not for website projects. I agree that it would be ideal to support it more generally, but we don't have that right now.

What option do I have right now to refer (via hyperlink) from one page to a different web page in my quarto website?

You can link to qmd files (including hashes) and the rendered content will use the correct output file extension.

See [section on topic](topics.qmd#section)

Should work.

Thanks. But what if I have different .qmds with the same name (but in different folders)? In my quarto website, the convention is that each post is named index.qmd and lives in its own directory. I want to link between posts, or generally link between any two files in my website, that may or may not have a unique name.

|   index.qmd
|   posts.qmd
|   _quarto.yml
|   
+---.quarto
+---docs
\---posts
    +---blog_post_1
    |       index.qmd      # <--- I want to hyperlink between here 
    |                              
    \---blog_post_2      
            index.qmd      # <--- and here

Use one of:

• relative paths: [link to first blog post](../blog_post_1/index.qmd). Relative paths are always resolved with respect to the document they reside in.
• "absolute" paths: [link to first blog post](/blog_post_1/index.qmd). Absolute paths are always resolved with respect to the project root directory.

Thanks! Works like a charm :)
