Web Link Set - Adding Jump Links/Bookmark Links without Full URL

Posted on by CU26052058-0

Hello,

Given that the concept behind having progressive development/test (sandbox)/production environments, I am finding it challenging to use "jump links." From what I can perceive, one must use the External Link field within a Web Link to denote the hash to a bookmark. That field requires a specific URL to be defined with the hash.

Is there a way to add links that will be a part of the main navigation and are that associate with an on-page bookmark without specifying the site URL?

Thank you in advance for any insight or help.

Web Link Set - Adding Jump Links/Bookmark Links without Full URL

Hi,

You’re right — by default the External Link field in a Web Link set expects a full URL, which can be tricky when you’re working across dev/test/prod environments. Unfortunately, there isn’t a native way to just drop in a relative hash (like #section1) directly in the Web Link UI. A common workaround is to use a relative path plus the hash (for example: /pagename#section1) so it works across environments without hardcoding the full domain. Another option is to add a small script or custom navigation tweak to handle pure hash-based jump links.

So, out of the box: full URL is expected, but using relative paths with hashes usually solves the environment portability issue.
