Record the application build and the message or placeholder shown. Do not delete an unfamiliar object simply because it cannot currently be displayed.<br /> <br /> === Understand the missing dependency ===<br /> A cross-document link refers to document and object identities, not just a filename. A plugin object can be preserved when its provider is unavailable; preservation is not proof that the object can recompute.<br /> <br /> === Open the intended target document ===<br /> Link recovery works with open documents. Open the actual referenced document with the matching identity. The application does not promise to search arbitrary disk locations by a remembered source path.<br /> <br /> === Restore the compatible provider when needed ===<br /> Use the extension version compatible with the file/host and follow [[OpenSite/Guides/Manage extensions]]. Do not substitute a differently named object or edit the saved IDs by hand.<br /> <br /> === Recheck and save a new copy ===<br /> Inspect the link/object status and dependent results. Save to a separate destination after confirming recovery. If it remains unresolved, include both build identifiers and a minimal reproducible document in a support request, after removing confidential data.<br /> |result=The original data is retained, and a recovered link is distinguished from an unresolved placeholder.<br /> |limitations=Opening a document with a missing provider does not supply the missing computation. Automatic path search and autosave recovery are not implemented.<br /> }}<br /> <br /> == Continue learning ==<br /> [[OpenSite/User manual|User manual]] · [[OpenSite/Tutorials|Tutorial pathways]] · [[OpenSite/Support|Get help]]<br /> <br /> &lt;div class=&quot;os-page-nav&quot;&gt;{{Docnav|OpenSite/Guides/Python property expressions|OpenSite/File formats|OpenSite/User manual|User manual}}&lt;/div&gt;<br /> [[Category:OpenSite documentation]]</div>
