org-element-context yields: (paragraph (:begin 6145 :end 6166 :contents-begin 6145 :contents-end 6165 :post-blank 1 :post-affiliated 6145 ...)) After relaoding org: (link (:type "textcite" :path "Hobart2003" :raw-link "textcite:Hobart2003" :application nil :search-option nil :begin 6145 ...)) and the link is working again! Why is that the case? I get org with git pull and then make autoloads, is that the problem? Thank you for your help, Christopher.
