Using anchor links to go directly to a section — Webflow tutorial

Anchor links or section links allow you to link to specific sections in a webpage. To create an anchor link, you'll first need to set an element ID on that section.

To link to sections on the same page, you can use the link to a section option in the link settings.

For those wondering how to make the link not scroll past the actual section, the quickest thing I found was to create an empty DIV section above the expected destination. I then link to the ID named in the empty DIV. (I couldn't figure out the 'offset' thing somebody else had posted).

Didn't even need to watch the entire video to figure it out. Thank you for providing a quick solution!

Hi,

Great video. I have a div block on my page with lots off copy...the block is set to overflow: auto. I’d like to link from sticky navigation to various points within this overflow div block. Is that possible? Thanks!

Hey guys, I need help! I have create a "Symbol" - BACK TO TOP BUTTON,
And try to use it in several pages.
I named those page's first section's ID "TOP"

And the results,
after published, only the 1 page will work. (The last page)
Don't know what happen? Is it because I can't make the button a Symbol?

How do you do an anchor link in a blog post? Is there a way to add an ID to a heading in a blog post?

[dennisfernando]

How a give link for the previous page for the button with is in the CMS collection page

[WonsPhreely]

So i got the first part - I made the ID for the section - but I want to use an image instead of a button for the second part. Anyone know how to do that? I select the image > go to settings > but I dont even have 'Link Settings' showing up in my settings panel?
Thanks!

Is it possible to disable the blue border around the target element when going to a page section? And good video!

Hi! I really need your help. I did everything that you guys showed in the video, but when I use the navigation button, it goes down a little too far.
(It will slide down below the header of the section, and starts at the text)

How can I fix it? Tried everything :(

VONDerful, but how can we link to an anchor on a separate page? thxs

[Yasmin-tjtq]

Why when I scroll to the section, the color of the link changes? What can I do to disable this option?

[Lanman]

For me it is scrolling too far past the anchor links and cutting off the headers of the sections. Does anyone know how to fix this?

[markiscoolms]

Is there a 'next' and 'previous' section, page option?
