Hi I’ve set up 3 anchor links on a page. For example

Apartment 1 reviews is meant to jump to the heading
Apartment 1 reviews:
However on each of the links, it jumps to a few lines below where I put the tag. On 2 of them I have tried to move the anchor link a few lines above where I want it to go but this seems a strange way to work & probably won’t be very accurate on different screen sizes. What do you think I am doing wrong or is this a fault in pagebuilder?

thanks
Elise

    I wrote the html code above to show you, but it disappears when posted (obviously) – is there a code I can put around the code so you can see my code, if you know what I mean?

    Hi I’ve set up 3 anchor links on a page. For example

    <a href="#A1">Apartment 1 reviews</a>  

    Apartment 1 reviews is meant to jump to the heading
    Apartment 1 reviews: [/code ]
    However on each of the links, it jumps to a few lines below where I put the tag. On 2 of them I have moved the anchor link a few lines above where I want it to go in order to jump to a few lines below but this seems a strange way to work & probably won’t be very accurate on different screen sizes. What do you think I am doing wrong or is this a fault in pagebuilder?

I have moved the anchor link a few lines above where I want it to go in order to jump to a few lines below but this seems a strange way to work & it doesn’t work on the first anchor as there is nowhere above to put it. Also it probably won’t be very accurate on different screen sizes. What do you think I am doing wrong or is this a fault in pagebuilder?

    thanks

    I just can’t seem to write the code correctly in this – but I am doing the correct code, that’s all I’m trying to show, its just the anchor isn’t working correctly. Please help.

    Hi Elise

    Sorry for the delay in getting back to you, it’s been a busy few days. The best solution to compensate for the sticky menu is to include a span element above the header which you can then set to the same size as the menu. For more information please see here

    Let us know if you need any help with this
