Anchor setting not working

    WordPress 6.7.1 with Theme “Generate Press”

    Windows 11 Pro with Firefox or Chrome

    I want to set an anchor e.g. at “Ausgewählte Inhalte des Webinars” so I can jump to it from different other pages.

    I have tried to follow instructions posted in different places on how to set an anchor. New block and entering text – Going to Advanced -> HTML Anchor -> entering Webinar-Inhalte. There is no reaction whether this worked, but when going to Ausgewählte Inhalte des Webinars the entry is there. Then at any other page linking to #Ausgewählte Inhalte des Webinars should set the jump to Ausgewählte Inhalte des Webinars but it does not.

    I have this WordPress installation tried at different providers. None worked. So maybe there is a basic misunderstanding of the instructions I found on the net.

    Your site is not open to the public, so I’m unable to check the page and let you know exactly what is wrong.

    But from your post:

    Advanced -> HTML Anchor -> entering Webinar-Inhalte.

    Then at any other page linking to #Ausgewählte Inhalte des Webinars should set the jump to Ausgewählte Inhalte des Webinars but it does not.

    If you entered Webinar-Inhalte into the HTML Anchor box, then the link should be #Webinar-Inhalte (ie what you entered into the HTML Anchor box with # in front).

    (Or the absolute URL http://viktorweisshaeupl.at/maerchenstunde-eines-homoeopathielobbyisten-ueber-homoeopathieskeptiker-als-geheimfortbildung-fuer-ausgewaehlte-aerzte/#Webinar-Inhalte if this is a site-wide menu link that should work from all pages.)

    Thanks!

    The #Ausgewählte Inhalte des Webinars was a typo here in the forum. I had written #Webinar-Inhalte in the other pages as a link. But adding the complete path made it work. I thought that as long as one uses a single anchor name the website recognizes it from everywhere.
