How linked pages work in NoteBound
Connect a page to another page when an idea needs its own space. NoteBound keeps those pages independent while using their links to show how the ideas relate.
Quick answer: A page link is a connection inside your writing. It points to another NoteBound page and helps form the hierarchy shown in Bookshelf. It does not merge the two pages or make them one document.
Add a link to an existing page
- Open the page where you want to refer to another idea.
- Use the editor’s plus toolbar and choose the option to link an existing page.
- Choose the page you want to connect. The link appears in your writing and the relationship is reflected in Bookshelf.
For example, a “Garden plan” page could link to separate “Seed notes” and “Watering schedule” pages. Each keeps its own title and content, while the links make the related pages easier to follow.
A link is different from copying or moving
Linking refers to another page; it does not copy its text into the current page. Removing a link removes that relationship, not the linked page itself. Deleting a page also does not automatically delete its linked pages.
Bookshelf reflects page links in a nested tree. This describes the current page organization; older canvas previews are preserved for recovery, but canvas editing is retired.
What links mean when you share a page
Sharing has its own access rules. When you share a page, NoteBound can include its linked pages. With whole-page sharing, later pages you link beneath that shared page can also become part of that share. You can exclude pages from a share, and a separate share keeps its own access.
A link by itself does not grant access to a page. An incoming link from someone else’s page does not add that page to your share. Review the selected pages before sharing, especially when a linked page contains writing or files you did not mean to include.
NoteBound uses accounts and cloud services and is not end-to-end encrypted. A link or share should not be treated as a private encrypted vault, and revoking access cannot erase copies a recipient has already kept. See the NoteBound privacy policy for how the service handles information.
