[question]insert anchor and link

Closed this issue 3 months ago · 3 comments

Could someone please explain in detail how to insert an anchor within the same page and a hyperlink that links to the anchor?
I want to use an in-page link, so I updated to zim 0.75.2.
I've been struggling with it for two days, but I still don't know how to operate it.
For example, when I click on the string "see here" at the top of the page, I want it to jump to the heading "bbbb" at the bottom of the page.
I'm not good at English, so I'd appreciate an explanation with pictures.

The anchor can be typed as "##see-here", 2x # without white spaces, if succesfull it is replaced by an small icon (picture which can be clicked). To link type "#see-here" (1x #) if succesfull it becomes a blue link. Hope this helps Jaap Op vr 9 aug. 2024 07:21 schreef soso4906 ***@***.***>:

Thanks for the advice.
But unfortunately it's still not solved.
I operated as follows:
I created a "New Sub page" under Main:Puppy named "test-link", then typed "#see_here" at the top of that new page, and "##see_here" at the bottom.
However, when I typed "##see_here" and pressed the Enter key, no icon was displayed and the text I typed disappeared.(A line break is inserted but the line becomes blank.)
When I place the cursor over "#see_here"(blue link) at the top of the page in this state, it displays "Go to "Main:Puppy:test-link#see_here"", but when I click it it returns "ld "see_here" not found on the current page".
What am I doing wrong?
If I look at the "Edit" tab under "Edit" > "Settings", the "Automatically turn identifiers starting with "#" into links" is checked.

I'll correct this.
My environment is a ubuntu-based Puppy Linux (fossapup64), which is a bit unusual.
When I first tried to install zim-0.75.2 with apt command, I got an error about "dependency problems" and was unable to install it.
So, based on information on the web, I first installed _0.72.0.1 with the Puppy package manager(PPM), then downloaded zim-0.75.2.tar.gz, unzipped it, and copied the zim folder inside it to /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/.
When I started zim after doing this, the zim version was 0.75.2, so I continued using it as is.
Following your advice, I re-examined this procedure, uninstalled 0.72.0.1 from the package manager, restarted the O/S, and then started zim, and just as you advised, when I entered ##see_here at the bottom of the page, a small icon was displayed, and when I clicked #see_here at the top of the page, it jumped to that icon.
This is exactly what I expected.
Once again, thank you for your advice.
