Anchor Links


Anchor links let you send visitors to a specific section of the page, making it easier for them to navigate a longer page or to reach a section you want to reference. Anchor links are very useful for letting users skip past content that may not apply to them, keeping them focused on what is important to them.


NOTE: Anchors cannot be added to content in the Footer or blog posts.
