We’re using JA Elicyon with numerous modules for a (mostly) one page site. http://myarmanihome.com/ . We want to link from the menu to the different modules on that page. E.g. menuitem "testlearnmore" (development site only) to link to the module on the same page, Learn more which is id 101. If you make any changes, please do that on our copy in our development site, http://jbdb.org/armaniwork/index.php (same login and password.)

So we have to have a name for the anchor, which I thought was the name of the module, but I can’t make it work. (#section-101,Learn more, 101) Do I have to add an anchor? If so, how do I do that in an ACM module?

I couldn’t figure out how to do a relative link, so I tried an absolute link. I used #11, #Learn_more, etc. but may have the syntax wrong. Pointers to how to properly create and call the anchor welcome.

Hi Dave,

Your site seems to be in offline mode now and the provided login info doesn’t work, could you check again?

Hi,

As I can see that you put the incorrect link in to the menu item settings. For example:

• The ‘Penthouse’ menu item has link of ‘#section-106’
• When I checked through homepage, there is no div tag has ID of ‘section-106’ so it will not work.

Here is a sample test in my local: http://prntscr.com/erqhqc . I want to link a menu item called ‘Test anchor’ to a specific section on homepage which has id of ‘Mod98’, I will add an external link with ‘#Mod98’ in menu settings.

Regards

Thanks for working with us but we’re still not understanding. Help please.

The problem here is how to put the anchor in the ACM module feature-intro style -1 in the right location, before the title. We need a way to link to the ACM module at its beginning, not to add an anchor inside it.

Entering the anchor in intro text results in a link too low in the page. We haven’t figured a way to enter the anchor into the title line.

In one of the forum answers, it suggested you could link to a module by using the ID number with #section-id for an ACM module but we couldn’t make that work either. Are we confused?

On the other hand, perhaps we can add a dummy module just above, with the title hidden, with the anchor being the sole content. That might work.

Suggestions?
