Hi, I tried to use HTML to pop some bookmarks into a post today, so that from another link you could get to a specific point in a lengthy post. I couldn’t seem to get it to work, is this something which isn’t currently supported? I added this within the post; ..and then, on the end of the URL in the browser, added; #bookmark I hit enter, but nothing changed, e.g. I wasn’t scrolled down to the bookmark automatically. What I am trying to incorporate is the same functionality I suppose as you already use for the replies to a topic (the reply numbers etc), but this would be for say a wiki post which doesn’t have replies, it’s just quite long.

/facepalm I didn’t think of that! Interestingly though, I did try it using the name attribute first and when that didn’t work I used the id instead. Can you think of any reason why it wouldn’t work if the #bookmark part of the URL was on the end of the topic number? For example, looking at this topic, I see this in the browser; https://meta.discourse.org/t/html-bookmarks-not-discourse-bookmarks/77241/2 I appreciate the /2 on the end is for the reply, and the previous number, /77241 is the topic, so, should /77241#bookmark work? Update Interesting, taking one the links from the /guidelines page and opening it in a new tab (Chrome) also didn’t exhibit the desired behaviour! For example; https://community.gamedev.tv/t/forum-guidelines-faq/5#flag-problems Only seem to work if they are clicked on, on the actual page…

This was implemented recently – here you go: [תמונה] Linking to a heading within a post or topic Using Discourse bookmark This guide explains how to link directly to a heading within a Discourse post or topic, enabling users to navigate long posts efficiently. person_raising_hand Required user level: All users Adding headings within long posts can make the content more readable and allow users to link directly to specific sections. This can be particularly useful for navigating extensive discussions and documentation. Summary This guide covers: Creating headings using Markdown Linking directly … Summary: Use headings and make sure the id starts with heading-- and it’ll work :slight_smile:

Thanks for this, is the use of headings mandatory? In my specific case the lengthy page has a number of images on it which I wanted to direct people to specifically, without having to add a heading above each one etc. I will go and test, but anything further would be appreciated.

I couldn’t get it to work with an element, so I think it must be a heading.

Thanks for the info, and yeah, I can’t either… hmm… will have to think on this one as having the text isn’t really what I wanted to do. Update /facepalm moment two… Ok, so I just added an empty heading tag and of course it works perfectly… it does render a little extra “space” where the heading tag would be, but nothing that’s really a problem. Thanks both - all good now :slight_smile:
