Online Text Editor - Link Text to "Jump Down Anchor"

Modified on Thu, Aug 22, 2024 at 5:20 PM

In the Online Text Editor, you can link a string of text to a point somewhere further down the page. Users who click on the link will jump down the page to the spot you've linked to.  This is handy for very long pages with lots of content where a sort of "Table of Contents" can make navigating the page easier.


*Note*: Not all text editors in the administration area offer this option.
