Let me first provide the context: There is often a need to generate, for org links export/publish to Html, elements where img src URL starts with a slash, like this The only way that was possible before v9, for this to be exported from a link such as [[/images/a.jgp]] was to use a method described in http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14684263/how-to-org-mode-image-absolute-path-of-export-html - Basically, the solution described there is a) define a custom link type such as "img" b) in org, use [[img:images/a.jpg]] c) define two functions handling the img link in org and on export/publish, and call (org-add-link-type "img" 'org-custom-link-img-follow 'org-custom-link-img-export) 2. The problem and question In org 9.0, we get `org-add-link-type ... This function is obsolete since Org 9.0 use `org-link-set-parameters' instead. My problem is I have no idea how to, in a practical sense, use `org-link-set-parameters` to define a custom link type "img" and handle it's image handling in both org buffer and Html publish. My question is, are there any links and examples how one would do the above in 9.0? Thanks Milan
