You can have environment variables in link paths: [[file:$HOME/wallpaper.png]] Alternatively, you can define a link abbreviation: #+link: local-file /home/user/ [[local-file:wallpaper.png]] and then load it via #+SETUPFILE with different setupfiles on PC and phone. Or you can have a custom link type. -- Ihor Radchenko // yantar92, Org mode contributor, Learn more about Org mode at <https://orgmode.org/>.
