Aloha all,
Recently, custom links that I've used for years changed their
behavior. They used to behave like other org mode links, but now
they are displayed in a different color face and are always fully
displayed, unless I add two new keywords to
org-link-set-parameters.
(org-link-set-parameters
"parencite"
:follow 'org-ebib-open
:export (lambda (path desc format)
(cond
((eq format 'html)
(format "(<cite>%s</cite>)" path))
((eq format 'latex)
(if (or (not desc) (equal 0 (search "parencite:"
desc)))
(format "\\parencite{%s}" path)
(format "\\parencite[%s][%s]{%s}"
(cadr (split-string desc ";"))
(car (split-string desc ";")) path)))))
:display 'org-link
:face 'org-link)
I added the :display and :face keywords after I stumbled upon a
list of defined links (which I wish I'd noted because I haven't
found it since) that indicated that :display was set to 'full
(which confused me because I'd read that the default was supposed
to be 'org-link). Adding these two keywords restores the original
behavior for me.
I'm wondering why I have to set these keywords to get the default
behavior?
I did search ORG-NEWS for a relevant entry, but didn't see
anything that rang a bell.
I hope you and yours are well in the face of the pandemic.
Let me know if you have questions.
All the best,
Tom

I tried this snippet, dropping the :display and :face arguments
(org-link-set-parameters
"parencite"
:follow 'org-ebib-open
:export (lambda (path desc format)
(cond
((eq format 'html)
(format "(<cite>%s</cite>)" path))
((eq format 'latex)
(if (or (not desc) (equal 0 (search "parencite:"
desc)))
(format "\\parencite{%s}" path)
(format "\\parencite[%s][%s]{%s}"
(cadr (split-string desc ";"))
(car (split-string desc ";")) path))))))
with the following buffer:
[[parencite:foo][bar]]
With an otherwise default configuration and the current master
(49364f904), the link gets fontified with the org-link face and
displayed as just "bar". So, that seems to be behaving as expected and
I don't spot any relevant code change to the handling of the defaults in
org-activate-links.
Have you tried to trigger it without any additional configuration?

Aloha Kyle,
Thanks for taking a look at this, and also for the instructions
how to test. I get the results you report.
Separately, off list, John Kitchin kindly noted that my symptoms
might be caused by org-ref. A bit of snooping led me to
understand that org-ref was installed on my system as a dependency
of emacs-reveal, so the mystery is solved.
I'm happy using the two new keywords; they seem to protect my
setup from being changed by org-ref.
All the best,
Tom
