    hello all!

    Does anyone know how to put a page jump into a webpage jump or better said, have a link that goes to a direct spot in another webpage?

    so one presses the link and it takes them to a scrolled down spot on another page.
    I can’t seem to find anything that tell me how to do this in wp on the web – am i missing something?

    If someone out there knows this, would you kindly tell me how?
    thank you all – kel

  • You just need to append a hash mark (#) followed by the name of the bookmark, to the end of the link to the other page. So, if your href looks like this:

    https://mysite.com/another-page/

    and you want to jump to the ‘page-middle’ bookmark on that page, you would use this:

    https://mysite.com/another-page/#page-middle

    Thank you for your response yet it didn’t quite work.
    on the page jump i am trying to go to a specific place on the page and so i have put: the topic instead of #page-middle

    https://www.sergiosalina.com/financial-planning-overview/#Retirement-Planning

    my code is being inserted into a menu item on the side bar
    please advise ??

    Did you create the bookmark on the overview page? It should be like this:

    <a name="Retirement-Planning"></a>

    EDIT: I just looked at your site, and the link should be this:

    https://www.sergiosalina.com/financial-planning-overview/#Retirement%20Planning

    instead of this:

    https://www.sergiosalina.com/financial-planning-overview/#Retirement-Planning

    There is a space between ‘Retirement’ and ‘Planning’ in the bookmark.

    but it looks more like this:

    Retirement Planning

    Thread Starter cartwrightk

    (@cartwrightk)

    a href=”#Retirement Planning “>Retirement Planning </a

    took the <> off to post the code ??

    by the way, thank you for your responses ??

    i have a menu on the top of the page that jumps to the area and now i would like to create a nav bar for the sidebar of the page that also goes to these precise areas. currently they only extend to the page.

    Please start a new topic for each question. With multiple questions, it is harder for multiple people (with different expertise) to respond and keep the answers straight.

    oh ok, I’m still on the original question
    how to put a page jump into a link so that one can access the specific topic by clicking from another page or site ??

    Please post the code from your anchor (bookmark) and the link.

    ok, the page where the jump is located:

    https://www.sergiosalina.com/financial-planning-overview/

    The top of the page jump
    a href=”#Retirement Planning “>Retirement Planning </a

    Where the jump lands:
    a id=”Retirement Planning”>Retirement Planning

    – took off the < > above so it would not show as a link ??

    That link points to a bookmark on the same page, and it works for me.

    I thought your question was how to jump to a different page. The approach is the same – you just use the href to a different page, not the same one.

    yes, I know it works in the page.

    my question is how to write the code and place it in a nav bar item located on the side menu to go to a specific spot on a page [go to that SPOT from any page]

    i just don’t know how to write the code to put it in the side bar menu
