Hi, I have two issues: 1. the backlinks buffer stays on the node from which it was invoked (with `org-roam-buffer-toggle`) 2. the buffer itself shows the node IDs along with their title, like so: ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/free1/uploads/orgroam/original/2X/8/89719a5b8b10344575de14456d7fb2c5d878aeee.png) Any ideas? Thanks! ---

1. Check `post-command-hook` variable; it should have `org-roam-buffer--redisplay-h` set locally for your Org-roam files (local-variable) – I can’t reproduce the issue 2. [Known issue with a resolution](https://org-roam.discourse.group/t/org-roam-backlinks-appearing-with-id/2716) – it seems to be a common issue from a new, unreleased version of Org ---

when I call `org-roam-buffer-refresh` I get > cl–assertion-failed: Assertion failed: (derived-mode-p 'org-roam-mode) I dont’t know if that’s a relevant function, but that error seems off… ---

Somehow your org-roam-buffer is not open with org-roam-mode (major mode)? Your config may be interfering by the looks of it… ---

This function is one you call in the backlinks buffer (org-roam-buffer), not in the note. It should be mapped “g” by default. You may be calling it from the notes buffer…
