Jump links to another page and return back to the first page anchors successfully

Question

I have made a one page website with their jump links using id attribute (#). These jump links are provided in the navigation bar (header navigation menu).

Now, we want to add another page, but the problem is that when we are on this new page, the anchors (jump links) of the first page don't work. The only solution is to click the home URL to return to the first page of the website.Is there any other solution?

Answer 1

You can use it like this http://wwww.yoursite.com/#anchor from another page.

Answer 2

You need to edit the navigation links – add a slash before the # in the navigation links like this: '/#jump1' instead of just '#jump1'

You will however have to use "Custom Links" instead of "Pages" to do this – see screenshot below:

…should do the trick…
