Back to the WYISWYG Anchor Links Video
welcome in this video we're going to
review how to use anchor links anchor
links are a feature that you'll find in
the WYSIWYG and they'll allow you to
essentially link to a specific part of a
page let's go ahead and create a basic
page real quick and we'll demonstrate
how those work
give my page a title here real quick
now let's say I want someone to be able
to click on a link at the top of my page
and be brought to the bottom of my page
to view maybe like an image well first
what I'll do is I'll write the content
of whatever I want someone to get down
to so let's go ahead and add an image
down here
and choose an image real quick from my
media library let's say the same sand
dunes one is good I'll select it
click the thumbnail
all right so there's my image next what
I want to do is put my cursor either
directly to the left or directly above
the image or the text or video or
whatever it is you want to bring someone
down to and we're gonna plant our anchor
so there's a button right up here in the
WYSIWYG for anchor if you hover your
cursor over this flag icon you'll see
anchor up here do note that this is
different from this flag icon which is
going to be for font awesome icons so
we'll click the anchor button and we're
going to name our anchor
okay something short but descriptive
works we'll go ahead and click OK and
then a little red flag will appear this
is where the users going to get dragged
down to when they click on our link now
the next step is forced to actually
create that link so we're going to
scroll up here to the top and we're
going to add our anchor text so first
make sure you write something short but
descriptive
all right and then what you'll do is you
will highlight the part of the text that
you want to turn into the link and we'll
click this link icon right here not the
only get one but this one right here to
the left and under link type in the drop
down we're going to select link to
anchor in the text and we're going to
choose the anchor by name and you'll see
there it is right there so I'll just
click OK you'll see that now this text
is linked let's go ahead and save this
page
you'll see now that when I click on my
link it'll take me right down to the
picture and that's how you use anchor
links
