Link and anchor to another page

alia84

Hi, 

Is it possible to have a link on one page that jumps to a specifc part of another page?

I have five boxes in my home page detailing various services (Website, Print Design, Video, Branding and Social Media)

http://www.makingfans.co.uk/

I would like to have a link for each box to direct the user to the specific area of the following page:

http://www.makingfans.co.uk/services/

So if the user selects "Social Media" on the home page it will direct them to the bottom of the "services" page.

Thanks

Ali

Yes,

this is done by linking the section in the url, for example:

domain.com/services#facebook

This will redirect you to the services page and scroll to the hashtag.

thanks

Thanks for your reply.

Sorry but im still unsure how i go about this. The image belows the two options i have...trying to link from the Hover color item to a specific area on a different page which has the Column item option. Can you please let me know where i enter the "domain.com/services#facebook" in the Column item?

Bryan

Your link is correct, but this site has to have an element with an ID that is the same as the hash, so if you link

domain.com/services#facebook there must be an element with an ID="facebook" on this page so the link knows where to scroll.

Sorry if i am asking stupid questions...but as i understand it:

The image on the left (Hover color item) has the correct link (www.makingfans.co.uk/services/#mfwebsite)

However, the image on the right needs to have an ID. In my example, #mfwebsite.

But i cant see anywhere on the right image to enter the ID...Which field from the options do i enter the ID?

Again, apologies if i am sounding stupid...

Thanks

Bryan

You do not sound stupid:)
You have to add a custom ID not to the column but to the section, there is a field for it.
Also enable one-page option on that page. It is under the muffin builder when you edit the page.

Hello again,

The above issue has reoccurred again and not sure as to why. I followed your instructions (please see attached) but the linking/anchoring to another page doesnt seem to work.

I have tested my website in Chrome, IE and safari but still get the same issue.

Please can you advise.

Many thanks
