Link to an element on the same page (Rise)
Back in the good old days, when we created plain html, we could link to an element on the same page, thus we could create an index of the topics on top of the page.
This is especially usefull when content is used as a reference guide.
In Rise however this is not possible, we can only create text links to an external url.
Does anybody knows a workaround to create such an anchor element in Rise?

Definitely in need of this - can you add ID references to each block - probably along the line of (id="Module_reference_Unique_Number") and have the ability to copy this reference to the clipboard in the settings of each block?
You currently just use Class fields which aren't unique therefore I can't use the external website reference option
Then we could easily have users jump to the section of the guide then find relevant - RachaelMcNamaraCommunity Member
Thank you for adding a link to the roadmap. However, I don't see it on the roadmap?
Hi Rachael,
This request still hasn't made it to our roadmap but we'll let you and everyone subscribed to this thread know when it does!- JasonHarwellCommunity Member
One would think this would be a top priority, as it would quickly bypass/solve almost every accessibility issue; a basic need in using Rise.

I use javascript for this, keep in mind your Rise courses are comprised of html, css, and javascript, live demo of the functionality: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rXHZvj-cSqE

Thank you for sharing your video!
Hi Dick,
Thanks for letting us know this feature is important to you! We're tracking requests to extend linking and anchoring ability. We'll keep you posted here if make any changes that might help!- LouiseCunnin115Community Member
I'd really like this as an option, and allow to cross-link content with in the course.

Not just this, but the ability to add external URLs to Blocks other than the buttons block. @Renz Sevilla, any updates on this?
- KarlMullerCommunity Member
Hi Ivy,
You can currently add external URL's to any selected paragraph text.
Alternatively you can also use a MULTIMEDIA / EMBED block to embed external URL's.

Hi,
Thank you!The embedded bit doesn't work for me. Pretty sure it is my company's firewall. That said I wanted to see additional flexibility, as in the flip cards or with the images blocks.
- IvyColon-PerezCommunity Member
Thanks for the feedback, now if you can share any developments on our ability to add links to other areas like flip cards or image blocks that will be great! :)

Hi Ivy, we don't have any updates yet about adding hyperlinks to flip cards and images. We will post them here once we get an update. Thanks for checking in.

I really miss this option!
- Thomaskoch-6bf6Community Member
I miss this option as well. Please develop more functions and less templates.

Would live this option.
