I’m wanting to link an ACF dynamic header to an anchor id on a different page, but can’t figure out if there’s a way.
Usage: A query loop of conference sessions with speakers’ names - {acf_speaker} - which I want to link to the speakers page, but target the individual speaker on that page via an html id anchor id, retrieved via an acf field in the session CPT - {acf_speaker_link}.
Bricks easily allows me to link to the speaker page (internal page link), but I would like to know if there’s a way to target a specific place down the page. Or maybe this is a feature request?
the easiest way is to provide the link already within your {acf_speaker_link}. You can use a field type of URL, set https://your-speaker-page.com# as default value and extend it per session with the speaker ID. Doing so, you can choose dynamic data and your text will link to your speaker page / the anchor on that page.
First, I thought of using external link together with {acf_speaker_link} as anchor ID, but that doesn’t work, because the dynamic data logic assumes that {acf_speaker_link} is a full link as well, so it prefixes it with https…
That’s also the conclusion that I came to given the options available. I don’t know why, but I was hoping there might be a facility for appending something to the link. But your suggestion works fine
