Yep it does! Once you have the anchor created you can put the link to it anywhere. On the same, on other pages, in the menu system, in text links, in buttoms, on other websites, on social media, in emails. Anywhere you can put a link :)

Elementor is a good builder and those new features are interesting. Do you know Elementor has a hosting service too? I will like to know if the hosting service is reliable and secure.

[@wplearninglab]

Hi Mariana, Yes, I've tried Elementor hosting service. In this video (kzbin.info/www/bejne/i2HCgYB4lN59j6M) I built a website using Elementor cloud (hosting). I don't have any data on how reliable it is, but it is expensive. Much more expensive than a good shared host like Siteground or a good dedicated hosting Cloudways.

[@barsk76]

Bjorn; I have two questions which I check youtube but couldn't find relevant info about Anchor links. As you are a coder, you may enlight us. 1ST: "how to make anchor links from a drop down header menu" . Okay here is a scenerio. We have a one page website that made with Gutenberg or Elementor and we have a header menu which have few drop down menu pages. How can we make Anchor links? 2ND: "how to make anchor links from footer menu to top". I believe ton of people curious about this one too. May be you can make a seperate video that contains these two questions Bjorn and I belive they will get ton of views. Thanks in Advance Bjorn 👍👍

[@wplearninglab]

Hey Baris, great questions! I have a few more anchor link tutorials ready to publish, but they don’t specifically address your questions. I’ll make a video for each of your scenarios!

[@barsk76]

@@wplearninglab thank you Bjorn 👍

[@androidfarmer8863]

Thanks for the vid - I actually came here exactly for the reason that you seem to have experienced - no autofill.... in the Elementor videos they seem to be just typing it in. I can't seem to get it to work for text or buttons, though.

[@wplearninglab]

It must be something Elementor's end. The WordPress block widgets autofill for us.

Is it possible to scroll down to specific section from a button in menu, but when you're on a different page, still possible to use that same menu button to go to specific section in 1st page? thanks

[@wplearninglab]

If you use absolute links in the menu buttons it should work. For example, the link in the button could be YourDomain.com/Page1#Section. That will take you to that section on Page 1 no matter which page the menu button is on, even if it's on Page 1. I hope that helps and thanks for watching!

[@kjerstibk96]

This was great! Thank you for sharing your knowledge :)

[@Maksitto]

Thanks for tutorial! But I have an issue with this. I added a link to the menu items. It works well but when I replace URL form just anchor points to the full URL's ( cuase I have 2 pages on my website.) my menu item is highlighted like it's hovered. What's the problem ?

[@macch1avello]

Somehow it's not working for me. When I click the link on the footer and I'm on page A, it loads the other page B, but it doesn't scroll to the set anchor. However, when I click the same link on the footer when I'm in page B, it scrolls perfectly to the anchor. Any Idea what's happening there?

[@wplearninglab]

Hi Johann, When you click on footer on page A and it goes to page B, does the URL in the address bar of the browser have the page B URL with the #anchor at the end of the URL?

[@Ali-ef6kg]

Hi your guide was great but im still having an issue with the link. When it connects to the servies page it doesnt align with the section required that i have selected any idea why or what i can do.

[@wplearninglab]

Good question Ali. Where you place the anchor text on the page you're jumping to is the place where very the top of the page will scroll to. If the page is scrolling too far down, then you'll have to move the anchor text up higher on the page. It may take some trial and error, but keep moving the anchor text around and you'll find the right place.

[@MaseratiSparks]

I am looking to make a page and when they click the link it takes them outside of my page

[@wplearninglab]

Hi Maserati, Do you mean when they click the link it will take them to a different website or you want to have a different website displayed within a page on your website?

Thank-you for your video. I have watched many of your tutoial videos. I created a "jump to recipe" button with html elementor widget. In the button are 3 recipes to select and jump to. My problem is instead instantly jumping it scrolls down (too much scrolling) and how do I fix it where it doesn't scroll, but instantly jumps to the recipe? I used the advance in elementor and entered where I wanted it to jump.

[@kent3W]

Thankyou for this, Very Helpful, is there a way to for it recall that you have clicked on the link? i.e when you go from the about the section to the profile and then back, it recalls that you have already clicked it. Thanks

[@wplearninglab]

Default browser behavior is to turn the blue links purple when they've been clicked. If you're using buttons or changed the link colors in Elementor the default behavior wouldn't work. But if you have some CSS chops you can use this help page to code a custom CSS solution: www.w3schools.com/cssref/sel_visited.php I hope that helps, thanks for watching!

How can I add this option to my WordPress elementor. Please guide thanks

Would this technique be responsive, and if so does itbtake time to be reaponsive on mobile. It just seems updates are not automaticlly responsive all the time. Does it just take time sometimes?

[@peterkarzis8052]

Hey Champ Excellent video, thank for sharing. I never actually built links like this and always wondered how you get to a specific part of the page after clicking on a link. Now I know. I do have one problem though, I am adding hypertext links and after making the link live, the text in the editor actually converts to an underscore, so we have missing text with an underscore in place. I have never experienced this in Elementor. Would you know how to solve this ?

[@wplearninglab]

Hey Peter, When you say "hypertext links" do you mean HTML links using the a tag? When you try to highlight the link does the text of the link appear in the highlighting?

[@cecilybc11]

Hi - I want to create a jump link that selects a particular tab in a set of horizontal tabs on a page (or accordion for that matter). My efforts so far just take me to the first tab every time - won't select, say, the 4th tab. Any tips?

[@cecilybc11]

BTW - I want to use this for external access - not just jumping around the site

[@wplearninglab]

You'll probably have to use JavaScript to detect when that particular link with the anchor is clicked. The link click will take the user down to the section you've anchored to and the JavaScript will change the state of the tab or the accordion to open the one that you want. The JavaScript isn't complicated, but it'll be a challenge if you're not used to coding. There will be lots of code examples if you Google it.

[@sergekronz]

Hello,. is there a plugin that would generate a site documentation for support purpose, WP version, theme, menu structure, plugins. I would like to generate these documents to quickly reverse engineer an existing site or hand that documentation to another guy in my photo club. Free if possible as the photo club has no commercial activity ? Thank you.

[@officerM1911]

this works for containers too!

[@PurpleWhirple]

Helpful, thank you. But it would have been clearer if both sections looked different. The original section with the link looks identical to the About section, initially a bit confusing.

[@wplearninglab]

Good insight Dave! I'll work on making things more clear in the future!

[@osamafayad6995]

Thanks for the good idea, it worked! but some times worked only on phone but not on the pc! What is the reason?

[@wplearninglab]

The only thing I can think of is part of the page isn't loaded yet when you click the link? Clicked it too soon after the initial load maybe? You said it the issue happened only sometimes, right?

[@philipandrewsphotography1625]

Hey do you know if you can add this CSS ID to the filters on the pro gallery?

[@wplearninglab]

Hi Philip, I don't know off the top of my head, but my feeling is you can't. The filters are built into the gallery widget. But the filters are being applied to a CSS class or ID that you can find by using the Inspector. Then you can apply your own CSS using the CSS field in Elementor Pro.

[@michaelfoerster3364]

Hi, thanks for the tip. However, it is often the case that the section is then a little bit 'cut-off'. It would be great to start the section 10-20 px heigher... any chance you have a javascript which provides that anchor?

[@wplearninglab]

Hi Michael, That'll happen if you have a sticky menu system that comes down the page with you. The easiest solution is to put the anchor a little bit higher on the page. I don't have any JS for that handy, but I'm sure if you Google it you'll find lots of options.

[@CharleneHaupt]

Can you make anchors jump to a specific place on another website?

[@wplearninglab]

Hi Charlene, you can as long as the other website has the anchors we created in this video. The anchors being the string of characters preceeded by the # tag; for example, #bob.

[@brianhenry7983]

how to do keep the link from opening a new tab to the link page?

[@wplearninglab]

Hey Brian, The method shown in the video should not open in a new tab. If the HTML a tag has the attribute target="blank" then link will open in a new tab. So you'll need to take out target="blank" or if you're using Elementor or another page builder there may be an "open in a new tab" option that you have to unselect. I hope that helps!
