Anchor Link
An anchor link will link you to a specific place on a page. Anchor links can be helpful when you want to bring a website visitor to a specific spot on a page.
The two parts of an anchor link are the anchor and the link. When the link is clicked, it will bring your visitors to the place in the page where the anchor exists.
Place the Anchor
- Place your cursor in the page where you would like to take your visitor with your anchor link.
- Click the Anchor icon in the editor.
- Decide on a unique name for your anchor link and enter it in the Anchor Name field.
- Click OK.
Create the Link
- Select the text you want to hyperlink.
- Click the Link icon in the editor.
- In the Link URL field type the pound sign (#) and then your anchor name.. Example: #SectionA
- Click OK.
Add Anchor Link to Button
- After you have placed the anchor, place your cursor in the Body content area where you want the button to appear.
- Click the Insert Button icon in the editor.
- In the Add Link field type the pound sign (#) and then your anchor name.
- Configure the button display.
- Click OK.
- Add the Button Text.
Note: When placing an anchor link for a heading on a page, place the link on the line above the heading instead on on the same line. This is best practice for accessibility but also will display the heading more accurately when someone goes to the link.
