I just tried to recreate a unique id link from the mailing list and
was surprised to find that =C-c l= did not create a unique id
automatically.
From the manual:[1]
C-c l (org-store-link)
...
If the headline has a CUSTOM_ID property, a link to this custom ID
will be stored. In addition or alternatively (depending on the value
of org-id-link-to-org-use-id), a globally unique ID property will be
created and/or used to construct a link (jwh adding: if org-id is
loaded).
Here's my min config:
#+begin_example
(add-to-list 'load-path "~/.elisp/org/lisp/")
(add-to-list 'load-path "~/.elisp/org/contrib/lisp")
(require 'org-id)
(global-set-key "\C-cl" 'org-store-link)
(setq org-link-to-org-use-id 'create-if-interactive)
#+end_example
Starting emacs with =emacs -Q= and then =M-x load-file ~/path/to/min-config=
File:
#+begin_example
* Alcohol^
Something
\newpage
* Another heading
Blah blah blah, see
#+end_example
With cursor at ^, I do =C-c l= and get this in the mini-buffer:
=Stored: Alcohol=
When trying to insert with =C-c C-l= I get this auto-completion suggestion:
Alcohol <file:~/Desktop/test.org::*Alcohol>
Normally that would have a unique-id, not file path/headline.
Org mode version 9.0.2 (release_9.0.2-140-g1c8908 @
/home/jwhendy/.elisp/org/lisp/)
Is this on my end (settings) or did something change? Doing this
definitely used to generate a unique id property drawer under the
linked headline and suggest it when going to insert the link
elsewhere.
Thanks,
John

FWIW, I cannot reproduce this issue.

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.
