Wow. I just wrote a response re-replicating my behavior and then went
to check the value of the variable to be sure!
org-id-link-to-org-use-id is a variable defined in ‘org-id.el’.
Its value is nil
That's interesting. So what did I set in my config??
(setq org-link-to-org-use-id 'create-if-interactive)
I changed to the correct variable name and all is well. Sorry for the
noise; it appears this is a super old variant of the variable based on
references I find on the web:
- http://git.net/ml/emacs-orgmode-gnu/2012-04/msg01203.html
- http://orgmode.org/w/?p=org-mode.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=4b4328e29b2c286505c7f0be0e54a37a8d1fbc75
I must not have caught a change at some point but I *swear* it was
working within the last year.
