Anchor links (also called jump links, bookmarks, or skip links) allow you to link to a particular spot within the same page or a different page.

To create an anchor link:

  1. Anchor link iconPlace your cursor at the spot on the page where you'd like your destination anchor—where you want the anchor link to lead. Click the Anchor button in the toolbar.
  2. Enter a unique ID for your anchor and click OK. The ID cannot have any blank spaces.
    • Note: Remember this ID or copy it somewhere; you'll need it for the next steps.
    • If the anchor link will be on a different page, submit this page for publishing. Then edit the page that will link to the anchor.
  3. Highlight the text that will be the anchor link. Use the Insert/Edit link button in the toolbar to create an "Internal" link.
    • If the anchor is on a different page, use the page chooser to browse for that page. Select the page and click Choose.
  4. In the Anchor field, type or paste the exact ID you used when creating the destination anchor. This will append the anchor ID to the end of the link's URL. 
  5. Preview the page and check the link. If it works, submit the page.

Troubleshooting

If the anchor link does not work:

  • Make sure the anchor ID matches the anchor link's Anchor field.
  • Anchors within expanding boxes will not work unless the expanding box is opened first.
