Long article - quick jump menu

  • Long article - quick jump menu

    Posted 18 years 1 week ago
    • ok, this is probably a stupid question but here it comes;

      How can I put like a menu at the top of the content that links to a headline in the middle of the article. I need some quick jump in long articles so the readers don't have to scroll and scroll...

      I am familiour with tabs and slides, i can use that solutions if i have to, but i will prefer to have this quick jump menu.

      Thanks :)

    • Hey Robert,

      This works in an ordinary HTML page so it should work in Joomla!. The following will just be adding a link into the content but HTML code does work in Menu Items also, just a matter of what your personal preferences are.

      1. Insert an anchor into your content in HTML mode
      <a id="Name of the anchor">You can enter text here but is unnecessary if you want an invisible link</a>

      The anchor is the place where you link will load to.

      2. Insert a link, in HTML mode, to the anchor
      <a href="#name of the anchor">Link Name such as Middle of article</a>

      Hope that helps and report back to see if it works :)

    • I'm not sure if this would do what you want, but have you tried using the "Insert Page Break" button in the content Editor everywhere that you want a new page? The menu for pages created this way is automatically generated, fyi.
      Not a jump menu, but still it may do what you want very easily.

      Cheers!
