Fantastic!

Thanks for the solution Lorro – it was a rather elegant way to modify the existing code without having to dig into the WordPress core files and/or create a custom theme as other people have suggested in the past.

I had to modify it slightly to 200 pixels to fit the aesthetic a little better, but it’s a very simple way to solve the problem.

Yes, I was speaking of the page editor – glad that came out right.

I had glanced at this tab before after looking at another tutorial for a similar program, but I didn’t actually try clicking on it (silly me). Thankyou very much for clarify exactly how to edit the HTML code from the WordPress editor – most tutorials were either about how to write HTML, or how to edit the files.

It does indeed work, I will just need to clean it up a bit to get the destination of the anchor working properly.

Thanks again for the help!

Thanks for the response jtleathers, I’ve looked through the server files but cannot find any specific files that house the content of the pages I write. It was suggested by my co-authors that because WordPress assembles the page from elements written within the theme that they do not actually exist, and I’m yet to find any other suggestions otherwise.

I’m not confident in my ability to create a proper child theme, and I don’t think I actually need to in order to create anchors to simply jump down the page. I have very little experience in coding HTML, my past experience is in Adobe’s Dreamweaver which has an HTML editor in parallel to a graphic interface similar to MS Word that can generate tables, write text, import pictures etc.

Is my original post too vague?
