Url link to a html anchor on a different page

Question

I am using Sites (which I assume is very similar to Hub) to create a web site and I ran into a problem of referencing a specific section on a different page. In one of the child pages, I created an anchor for a specific section by adding

in the text box using html editing. On the same child page, I can add a link to this section by using . However, I can't find a way to refer to this anchor if I am on a different page. For example, if the link to the child page is , I've tried many different url format but none of them works: Have anyone succeeded in doing this? Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

We have been using Sites since the 10.8 release, I believe, and there has been some work on this topic (BUG-000130923, ...). Since then, the anchor behavior has changed with about every third release. I updated from Enterprise 11.2 to 11.4 today. In 11.2, the following is possible: * Link: go to top * Anchor: In 11.4, this is no longer working and you have to use the following, as Samuel_McAuley also pointed out: * Link: #top * Anchor: id="top" Please visit this 11.4 test page to inspect the different schemes I tried out. You see, however, that clicking the working 11.4 link will break the URL to: https://maps.vdl.lu/portal/apps/sites/#top Can You reproduce this?

There are definitely functionality differences between Hub on AGOL and Sites so thanks for highlighting that. What version of Enterprise are you on?
