Link to an element on the same page (Rise)

Jan 04, 2021

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?

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?

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.

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 miss this option as well. Please develop more functions and less templates.

Would really appreciate this functionality too, too much scrolling otherwise.

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
