How can I make a link to an item on the same page, but further down the page?



To link to somewhere on the same page:

In the pages editor place your cursor on the page where you want to link to. In the toolbar click on the Anchor icon (Insert/Edit Anchor). Enter the Anchor Name - this can be anything you like but it is best to name it relevant to the information you are linking to - and to keep the name simple (i.e. one word, no spaces). Click on OK.

You’ll see the yellow Anchor icon in your page in the Pages Editor (note that this will not appear on your live website).

Now to make the link to the Anchor - highlight the text you want to link from and then click on the Insert/Edit Link icon in the toolbar (a globe with a chain link). In the window which opens select "Anchor in this Page" from the Link Type drop down and then select your anchor name from the "Select An Anchor By Anchor Name" drop down. Click OK.

Click on "Update Page" and your link is set.
