Add an anchor to a page, as follows:
- Place your cursor in the content where you want the anchor to be.
- In the What You See Is What You Get (WYSIWYG) toolbar, click the Anchor icon.

- Enter a name for your anchor.
- Don't use spaces or add "#" before the name.
- Click Save.
- Your anchor has now been created, and you should see an anchor icon in the text (this will not appear on the live page).
- Save your changes.
Link to an anchor within same page:
- Highlight the text you want to turn into a link.
- In the WYSIWYG toolbar, click the Insert/Edit Link icon to open the "Insert/Edit Link" box.

- If anchors exist on this page, the "Anchors" dropdown will be available. Select the
anchor on this page you want to link to.
Link to an anchor from another page:
- If you want to link to an anchor from another page, in the "URL" field, click the
file chooser.

- From file chooser, click the name of the page.
- Click Insert.
- In the "URL" field, type "#" and the anchor name.
- Don't use spaces in the anchor name.
- In the "Title" field, enter the name of the anchor you're linking to.
- "Title" text appears when someone hovers over the link and is used by screen readers. This is important to meet accessibility compliance standards.
- Save your changes.
