Anchor Component
Anchors can be used to enable quick jumps to specific points of an article. An example of anchor usage would be a 'back to top' anchor placed at the bottom of a page to prevent users having to manually scroll back through large amounts of previously viewed content.
To create an anchor linking to content on the same page:
- From the 'Media' list, drag an 'Anchor Component' to the point in the content readers will be jumping to.
- Select the 'Anchor Component' and create a unique ID.
Notes
- ID's must begin with a character (A-Z), such as '#MyAnchor'
- To create the link that readers will select to jump to the anchor, highlight a portion of text to expose the text formatting toolbar
- Add a hyperlink using the 'Hyperlink' icon, and enter your anchor ID: #MyAnchor
To link to an Anchor located in a different article:
- Add a hyperlink to the text you want users to jump from.
- Instead of entering the anchor ID, enter the URL of the article readers will be jumping to, followed by the anchor ID. For example, "https://DomainURL/13754/article.html#MyAnchor"
Notes
- If using multiple anchors on the same page, they must have unique ID's.
