Hello,
For most of my links, I want to use the ID generated by orgmode
i.e., (setq org-id-link-to-org-use-id t)
But occasionally, for targets that are not part of my agenda files, I want
to store a link of the type file:path.org::*headline
I wrote the following function to accomplish that:
(defun org-store-file+headline ()
"Store link as file + headline"
(interactive)
(let ((org-id-link-to-org-use-id nil))
(org-store-link nil t)))
This function works (lightly tested).
But is there a built-in way, such as using prefixes or arguments to
org-store-link? I browsed the code for it, but that function is several
hundred lines long, and I gave up.
Thank you,
Mirko

I think the function is the best option, as the logic of whether to
store ids (based on the value of org-id-link-to-org-use-id) is
hard-coded into org-store-link and can't be changed through arguments.
You could always create a custom function and bind it to 'C-c l' in
org-mode:
(defun my-org-store-org-link (arg)
"Store a link org mode.
When there is a prefix arg, use file+headline format"
(interactive "P")
(let ((org-id-link-to-org-use-id (not arg)))
(org-store-link nil t)))
Best,
Matt
