Create anchor links in version 2.0

    Hi,

    I’m trying to create an anchor link in version 2.0. I want to make it possible to click on a container and have the view jump to a heading within the article. This is possible with plain text. However, I can’t find a way to assign an anchor link to an entire container.

    I entered under HTML ID for the container: #linkname
    and for the heading where the link should jump to, also under HTML ID: linkname

    Both, the container and the heading were already created with the new, blue version 2.

    I looked at this article: https://learn.generatepress.com/blocks/block-guide/add-container-links/#
    but it doesn’t seem to work for 2.0 anymore, does it?

    Is this the only way to set anchor links? With global styles?

    Thanks

    Hi there,

    Can I see the section you’ve created?

    Hey,
    in the attached video, I show the section I am currently working on. At the top, I have my current container with the new blocks (the blue ones), and at the bottom, I have copied a container from another article where the links are working. I don’t understand why I can’t set links in my current container at the top.
    Thank you!

    Hi there,

    The Add Container Link toolbar shortcut was deprecated in V2, which is why you no longer see it. Now, the correct way to add a container link is as explained in the article you mentioned in your first post.
