Ability to change the page of the linked pdf
I would love to see the ability to change the page number of a linked pdf in the links palette - as it stands you have to relink file, click 'show import options' (which then remains on when you don't want it to) navigate to the pdf then click through what page you want to display. It's slow and clunky. A simple icon next to the link where you could select the desired page would speed my workflow up massively.

Why on earth has this not been implemented? Some of us work on file systems with many levels of folders, and constantly navigating between different folder structures just to change pages is a ginormous waste of time.

June 2022 and this STILL hasn't been implemented. Why are we paying a monthly fee for this garbage?

This would deserve a THOUSANDS of likes.
Imaging if you could do it using a shortcut like cmd + shift + right or something like that.
Best improve 2022 =D

I mean, this entire app is based around everything being a linked file of some sorts bar the odd bit of vector graphics (which you're better off doing in Illustrator anyway) so why is relinking files with multiple pages so slow and clunky? It DESPERATELY needs rethinking. Even relinking things that are a single page doc is a pain - I can select multiple files in the links pallete with the intention of changing them all to one single file yet Indesign forces me to navigate to each file instead of there being an option to replace all. It's dreadful UI

Take the existing UI for Import options and merge it into Object layer options and then rename that Object options

Even a popup [Object Pages Options...] like the existing [Object Layer Options...] would speed up the workflow.

Just an up/down button so you could flick between the desired pages would suffice. Over 2 years since I posted this comment and I'm still having to individually relink every. Single. Page.

Yes! It's tedious to have to relink for the sake of changing the page displayed.

How is this not something you can do? Seems like such a strange thing not to be able to do...

Yes, this would be great. Would love to see that.

Yes, we definitely need this! Also for linked INDD, AI or any other format that supports linking to a specific page.
