Adding Anchor Links

Learn how to use Anchor Links to make it easier for learners to jump directly to a specific section of long articles.

Sometimes, article text is long, and you need a way to jump to a particular section. Using Anchor links allows you to do this within a text area. 

To begin, first establish an Anchor

  • In the text area, select the text that you would like to be able to jump to 
  • Then choose the Anchor icon in the text toolbar

  • Give the Anchor a name (no spaces are allowed) and then select Insert

Now that the Anchor has been created, you can use the Link tool to add a link. Follow the steps below.

  • Choose the text that you would like to be the link, and then select the Link tool
  • In the link options, you will now see the Anchors option
  • Select Anchors to see the list of all anchors on the page that you have established
  • Choose the correct Anchor and then choose Insert
  • The text is now linked to the Anchor that you have established, and learners can use that link to jump directly to that point of text
  • If you need to edit the Anchor, you can select it to change or delete it
