Description Thomas Frayne 2003-03-12 18:19:40 UTC 
When looking at a directory containing a link file or directory, I would
like to be able to right click and get an menu command to follow the link.  

For a non-directory link this should display the containing directory and
select the file.  For a link to a link, this should also make it easy to
continue following the link chain, perhaps by displaying the context menu
for the target file.
Comment 1 André Klapper 2021-06-18 15:49:01 UTC 
GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org.
As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org
which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately
quite limited so not every ticket can get handled).

If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent
and supported software version of Files (nautilus), then please follow
  https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines
and create a new ticket at
  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/nautilus/-/issues/

Thank you for your understanding and your help.
