For the links to be relative to the physical page where they are written, and not to the page which includes them, place in your file pmwiki/local/config.php the following line: $EnableRelativePageVars = 1; > 1.

But you could change the title of the pages. We call the page Rimfire. In the page we add: (:title Signed Book, "Rimfire":) A link in the listings: [[Rimfire | Signed Book, "Rimfire"]] or [[Rimfire |+]] where + is a shortcut for the page title. > 2.

You can change the page title and use [[Link|alternative text]] or [[Link|+]] where Link is the page name without any punctuation. If the documentation is not helpful, you can suggest improvements.
