Does Confluence support "bookmarks" that allow users to jump to various areas on the same page?

[Leslie_Jones]

One of the documentation pages I'm creating is getting quite long. Can I create something similar to Microsoft Word's bookmarks and hyperlinks that allow the user to jump to a particular place on the page without scrolling back up to the top of the page and using the table of contents?

Hi @Leslie_Jones ,

Welcome to Atlassian community. 

Have you tried anchor macro. You can use this to navigate to different sections of the page.

Below page has all the info on how to use it. 

• Anchor-macro 

Hope the above info helps. Have a good weekend.!

Thanks,

As @Srinatha T says, you can add Anchor macros to your page for the "destinations" of hyperlinks.

Then you can sprinkle hyperlinks in your document allowing users to click on them and jump elsewhere in the page. You may have to save the page (to make the Anchor macros "stick") and then edit the page again in order to use the anchors in a hyperlink.

Thank you both! That was exactly what I was trying to do.
