The Glossary
Links: It is easy to become confused by the multiple definitions surrounding the word "link" within VoodooPad. Words can be used as links between pages within your document. There can also be links to URLs, and documents that exist outside of VoodooPad. There are many different ways to create links.
Embed vs. Import: In older versions of VoodooPad, the term "embed" was used rather than "import". The terms can be used interchangeably. Any outside file or document brought into VoodooPad to exist as its own page or to append to a current page has been embedded or imported.
Alias: An alias is a word/link that goes to a page with a different title. For example, a page named "Apple Computer" might have an alias of "AAPL" which will link to the "Apple Computer" page. Find out more about aliases by reading its topic page.
Backlinks: Backlinks are the pages that link to the page you are currently viewing. To view the backlinks for a given page, choose the View ▸ Palettes ▸ Backlinks menu item.
Item: An "item" is a chunk of data inside your VoodooPad document. Pages are items, but so are file links and custom url links. It is just a way to group together the things you put in VoodooPad.
Orphan: A page in a VoodooPad document that is not linked to from any other pages in the document.
Pad: Another word for "VoodooPad Document". This was used way back for version 1.x, but the preferred term for the stuff you stick all your pages and items in is "Document".
Event Scripts: A Pro only feature (and formally known as "triggers"), event scripts are a handy way to script VoodooPad when certain events occur, such as a new page being created or deleted, documents opening or closing, files being written on web export and more.
