Hi @aksellno!

Thank you for sharing your feedback! 🙏

This is not really a bug, the behavior is intended, but we are considering changing it based on feedback like yours. Please, see this discussion for more context.

I am migrating your issues to the Editor V4 Feedback Discussions to ensure this gets followed up in the future.

Thank you again,

Best regards

Hey @aksellno!

Another update! 💪

We are working on changing this behavior to ensure the rendered link will respect your permalink structure. This change should be introduced in a future beta release.

Regarding issue #33149, as I stated before, this was not a mistake or a bug. This was an intentional decision regarding internal links to ensure the link was always pointing to the right document, even if the slug changed which is something that would not be possible with other permalink options. The Plain option will always point to the ID of the document, and WordPress handles the canonical permalink rewrite on the fly.

However, after discussing this internally, we see how this could solve an issue but introduces others, so we are going to change it back to what you are used to see in V3.

Thank you for sharing your feedback! 🙏

I will be updating you here once we introduce these changes, and will be closing issue #33149 to ensure we keep things organized ok?

Kind regards

Thanks for the update. We were experiencing some issues in some browsers with that link behavior and it also made some of the links not working.

Hey @aksellno!

How's it going?
