I have an InDesign document with quite a few hyperlink destinations.
How can I figure out how to identify the name of each of the individual hyperlink destinations?
I've tried clicking on a hyperlink destination and choosing Hyperlink Destination Options from the Hyperlinks panel, but that just gives me a list of all the destinations. It doesn't tell me the name of the destination I selected.

Hi Jay,
Thanks for reaching out. In order to locate the destination of a hyperlink or cross-reference, select the item you want to locate in the Hyperlinks panel. Choose Go To Destination in the Hyperlinks panel menu.

Hope it helps.

For some reason, your suggestion isn't working. Much of the instructions in the URL you provided are not working either.
This InDesign document is going to eventually be saved as PDF.
There are source hyperlinks on the master pages that have destinations on the regular layout pages. If I save as PDF, the source and destinations do work correctly.
Should the InDesign hyperlinks be set up differently to make it easier to edit them in InDesign and so that the instructions will work?

Maybe you have a corrupt document? Export to IDML and re-open that to an INDD as a way of testing.

Good idea. I saved as IDML, reopened the document and still have the same issues.
I'm wondering if the problem is that hyperlink sources are on master pages and hyperlink destinations are on regular layout pages.
