Re: [O] How to escape [ and ] characters in org-mode links
It works here on a recent Org. Thank you. I have a little outdated version. It started to work after I used the escaped percent as Kyle Meyer suggested.

However, the current escaping mechanism for links in Org is not really satisfactory. In the long run, we will need to change it. Regards, -- Nicolas Goaziou

While the search string is escaped elsewhere in org-link-search using regexp-quote, it is treated as a regular expression for normal text search. Try escaping with \: [[./file.txt::$form\%5B'text2'\%5D]] -- Kyle

Re: [O] How to escape [ and ] characters in org-mode links
Hi Dmitry, org-mode has the following format for links: [[file-name::text-to-search][link text]] What should I do, if text-to-search contains ']' symbol? Like this: $form['input'] Not sure it helps in your case, but this * Heading containing [brackets] * Other heading Here is a link to [[Heading containing *%5B*brackets*%5D*][that first heading]]. works for me.
