Creating an Anchor Link in WordPress

If you would like to anchor or jump down to part of a page you will need to add an id to any tag. This can only be done in the “Text” editing section though.

Text tabOnce that has been selected you will want to navigate down to the place on the page where you want to anchor or jump to. Select a tag and add an id to it, for example <h2 id=”WordToAnchorTo”></h2>

Then go back to the “Visual” editor and select the word that you would like to link to the anchor. Then click on the link icon.

In the box that pops up you want to put a # and then the exact id you gave your tag. So to match with my example above you would put #WordToAnchorTo.
