When I click on a link with an anchor on desktop, it scrolls there. However on mobile (Android, FF & Chrome) the anchor gets stripped from the url so there is no scrolling to that spot. What I am trying to do: We have a long guideline and faq document that need to link to headings. Because Discou…

Small update… Someone suggested using query parameters instead. Those don’t seem to be removed on mobile. But amazingly, they are removed on desktop.

Here are some related posts, although they don’t address the specific issue of urls being stripped… [imagen] Anchors Not Working Across Posts Within Topic Bug We’re trying to set up a topic as a sort of FAQ/forum usage guide, and in doing so we’d like to …

i don’t use android so i can’t test this but i’ve used linking to headers many times and they work on my iphone just fine. i’m curious why you are using id anchors instead of just linking to the header you want? for example does this work for you? cloudflare R2 configuration can you give an exampl…

[imagen] Lilly: instead of just linking to the header you want? Because those header links are extremely fragile. This is what the one you gave looks like: https://meta.discourse.org/t/-/148916#p-738234-cloudflare-r2-13 See that -13 at the end? It’s there because it’s the thirteenth heading…

In my tests, the Markdown cooker strips out name attributes. This is the root of my first problem. However, the issue I am raising in this topic is that even if I could get that anchor to work, on mobile the #cloudflare-r2 gets stripped off. It doesn’t on desktop.

Ah I see, yeah looks like the rich text editor strips those out but the markdown editor does not… in the rich editor I think you’d have to wrap it in a div so it preserves the HTML <div><a name="x"></a></div>

I have tried that. It still gets cooked out. Also, I can’t rely on someone in the future not using the Markdown editor. I have placed that html above in the rich text editor to test. Lets see…

OK! That seems to work on both counts! In both editors no less. I need to do some more testing, especially on mobile. I will keep working on this and report back. Thank you!
