Can you create links to subheaders of sections down the page at the top that will allow users to jump via link? I'm working on a page that will be a long directory list, and we do not want to use accordions. This type of page may be developed for other uses and has the potential to become unwieldy. I.e. users would have to scroll a while just to know about subcategories and info below. Accordions would shortcut this but are not preferred departmentally. I've poked in the style guide and can't find this, though I thought it existed somewhere. Can I list the categories at the top of the page with a "Jump to" function and link them to those subheaders down the page?
Hi Tara, the way to do this is with HTML anchors, as described in Stefanie's link above. You do need to go into the HTML editor, though.
First, add the code in bold inside the header that you want to be the "destination":
<h2 id="UniqueIdentifier">Header title</h2>
The ID you add here must be unique to that header, so you will need a different one for each destination.
Second, you can create the link that will jump to the destination by adding this bolded code:
<a href="#UniqueIdentifier">This link</a> will scroll the page to the appropriate header title
The ID you add here must have a hash symbol before it, and it must match the ID you chose for that header.
This is only a good idea on long long pages; and usually it's a better idea to split the page up into separate sub-pages if that is possible.
