How to Add a Link to a Specific Section on a Page

You can create direct links to specific sections and place them anywhere on your site, such as in the main menu, footer, buttons, or within text. This feature enhances user experience by enabling quick access to important information without requiring visitors to scroll through the entire page. It is particularly useful for single-page websites, where it helps users navigate efficiently. 

Creating a Section Anchor ID

To add a link to a specific section on a page, go to the Site Builder and click Customize

Next, navigate to the page that contains the section you want to link to, and select it.

In the top right corner of the section, you’ll see the Section Tools. Click the three-dot icon to open the settings menu.

Click Section Anchor ID from the menu which will appear. 

Next, enter a name for this Section Anchor

Note: This name will be used when adding the link for this section in different places.

Your Section Anchor ID has been created and can now be added to menus, buttons, or text.
