Options -> Libreoffice -> Security -> Options... dialog (Security Options and Warnings) has this option: "Block any links from documents not among the trusted locations (see Macro Security)" It's not mentioned in the help page for security options: https://help.libreoffice.org/index.php?title=Common/Security&Language=en-US&System=WIN&Version=5.1#bm_id1976683 A note: In bug 78580 a user could not figure out for a long time that the reason why sometimes linked images were not displated in his own document was due to this setting. I guess some kind of reference to this possibility could be useful, because currently there's no indication to the user why their content isn't loaded (until the suggestion in bug 83665 gets implemented... eventually). So maybe something that could guide users to this option if they search the help? Negligible issue: In the Security Options and Warnings dialog pressing Help/F1 while OK, Cancel or Help is selected, it'll give totally uninformative results like this. https://help.libreoffice.org/swriter/cui/ui/securityoptionsdialog/ok?Language=en-US&System=WIN&Version=5.1
