Summary - My Hook Notes files are not showing links to their source (webpages, in my tests)… at least not immediately. I have to restart Hook for the links to show.
I am using v3 of Hook and Safari. I have my default Hook to New as a text file, that gets saved to Hook Notes.
In a webpage, I’ll invoke Hook, cmd-n, type a note and close the file. When in invoke Hook, again, on the webpage, I can see that the note file is linked.
If I go to the note file, select it, and invoke Hook, I do not see the link to the webpage.
Update, 12 hrs later… the notes I made via hook this AM are now showing the links to their source webpages. But… notes I created just now, are not.
So, I restarted Hook and checked again. I can now see the links to the webpages from the notes.
Maybe that’s it. I’m renaming the bug to draw attention to that. If it happens on non-iCloud please let us know.
It may be that iCloud has started offloading these files in a “problematic” way. (Apple does not document iCloud updates the way it documents macOS updates). Hook has some code that makes its bookmarks adaptive in several ways, so that when files disappear and re-appear it can re-attach them for instance.
