An anchor link allows you to link (or "jump") to a specific place or section on a page. You would use anchor links to allow a reader to jump to a specific section of a page without having to scroll all the way down the page.

This is a two step process:

Step 1: Create the Anchor

• Login to enter site edit mode.
• Identify the page and section you would like to create the anchor.
• Place your cursor where you want the reader to land.
• Insert an anchor link using the “Insert/edit anchor” icon (it’s shaped like a flag) in the rich-text editor.
• Name your anchor appropriately. The anchor name should be something short and easy to remember (you should also avoid using spaces or symbols in the anchor name).

Step 2: Creating a Link to the Anchor

Now you’re ready to create a link to the anchor you just made.

• Scroll back up to the top of your page and highlight the text where you want your first anchor link.
• Click the "link" button.
• Click the "link type" down arrow and select "link to anchor in the text"
• Select the anchor name you wish to link your text to

• Click ok
• Once you have linked the text you will see that it is a different color.
• Click "Save" at bottom of page.

Note: To get the URL you can use to send people directly to your specific page section, add “#anchorname” to the end of a page URL.
