Linking pages - how does it work?
Vote:
Dear all,
1. Click file cabinet to get the file action window
2. Upload a file somewhere
3. On any page, in editor, click "Insert document" button and insert a link to that file
4. Go back to the file action window
5. Show file summary for the file
Result: It says "Linking Pages: No references"
Shouldn't the "linking pages" tell me what pages links to this file? Or have I misunderstood anything?
I'm using EPiServer 4.51.2.145.
Best regards,

No, I don't think you have misunderstood anything (the "linking pages" should tell you which pages the picture is linking to).
The link reference is updated as a background job. It could take up to 1 minute before the reference is updated (This is not the same as a scheduled task but runs as a separate job in EPiServer).
You can check back at some other files and pictures and see whether they have a link reference.
If find that the link reference is “none” on several of you pictures/ documents you need to contact your partner.

If you still haven't found a solution to your problem, this may be a suggestion:
1) Log in to admin mode and choose the actual page type that contains your link.
2) Locate the actual property that the link is inserted in, and click it.
3) Make sure its searchable, by checking the Searchable checkbox.
EPiServer will only index links from properties that have the searchable checkbox checked.
Hope this helps,
