Just select that text and link it with a # right before the anchor name. Then just go back where you want to link it. Then enter the anchor text in “HTML Anchor ” box. In the very first step, highlight the header and click on the “Advanced ” from the right-hand side. Let’s find out how you can do it in the Block Editor. Now you can add anchor links without using a plugin. WordPress makes it insanely easier in the Gutenberg Editor. If you want a link from another page to jump to a heading, you can add the anchor link (begins with a “#”) to the regular page link and when that link is clicked on the user will be taken to that heading on the new page.Adding Anchor Links Without Using A PluginĪdding Anchor links in your post is super easy and straightforward. If you begin typing the heading you want the link to jump to, the anchor link for that heading will appear in the search results. To create an anchor link, add the desired link text, select it and click the “add link” icon. After saving the content, those headings become available as “anchors” which can be linked to. When you open your content for editing, the plugin adds unique ids to all the h2 and h3 headings. The plugin works by adding a unique “id” to the headings in your content. This plugin doesn’t use any settings or require any setup, just activate it and it’s features are available. This makes it very easy to add “jump” links to headings within the content. This plugin adds a unique ID attribute to healings in your page and post content, and then makes those anchors available in the linking pop-up. Note: This plugin is not currently compatible with the Block Editor.
