Page Creation - Scenario 6

How to Create Anchor Links

Note: Before making changes to the template, be sure to make a copy of the template page. Refer to the previous scenarios for instructions on duplicating pages.

Step 1: Scroll down to the item you would like to link. In this scenario, we will be using promo 6 Rich text: Video 4. You may also want to scroll down the preview page to see your changes.

Step 2: Click on the Video 4 title, and then click the Edit icon. Change the title of the video to your desired text.

Step 3: Go to Overrides and copy the text shown under Anchor. This text will become your anchor link. It must be copied exactly as it appears on screen. Click the Save and Close button after copying the text. You can see your changes on the page preview.

Step 4: Scroll up and click List: Simple List Untitled. Next, scroll down to the fourth promo, which it called 4 Promo: (Text Only) Untitled. Within this promo, click on the Insert Text hyperlink, then click on the Edit icon. You will see the old video title in the URL field.

Step 5: Under Button Text, type the title of the button. The button text should resemble the title of your video.

Step 6: Under the Link field, make sure Anchor is selected.

Step 7: In the space under URL, paste the previously copied override text from Step 2. Make sure the text has no capital letters or spaces, and be sure to include the pound or hashtag sign in front. The link will not work if you do not include the pound or hashtag sign, or if you do not include dashes between each word. Click the Save & Close button when you are finished.

Note: This is the anchor link. When a user clicks on this link, he or she will go directly to the fourth video. See the changes to the button on the preview screen.

Step 8: To check if the anchor link works successfully, click the new window icon to open a preview in a new window. Click the button (or anchor link), and it should drop down to the connected text and video that are located lower on the page.

Note: As you edit the page, be sure to save your progress by clicking the floppy disk icon on the upper right-hand side of the screen.
