How to use Anchors
Want to direct your visitors to a specific spot on a really long page of your site? You can create an anchor, then set a link to the anchor using tools in the WYSIWYG editor to get the job done. Here are the steps:
Part 1 - Create an anchor
The first step is to create an anchor.
- Highlight the text you want to anchor.
- Select the Link button in the WYSIWYG toolbar and then the Anchor (Flag) button.
- Enter an Anchor Name. We highly recommend using simple names, all lowercase as anchors are case-sensitive. Also, be sure there's no spaces.
That will drop in a little anchor flag, as pictured below.
Part 2 - Create a link to the anchor
The next part is much the same as normal link creation
- Highlight the text you'd like to link
- Click the link/link button
- Choose External link
- Type in a hash (#), followed by the exact anchorname.: #anchorname
- Uncheck Open in New Tab
- Click Insert
