In this tutorial, we will learn how to link to a specific section in another page using Webflow. Linking to a specific section can improve the user experience by allowing users to jump directly to the relevant content they are looking for. Let’s dive in and explore the steps involved:
Step 1: Create the Destination Section
The first step is to create the section that you want to link to on the destination page. You can use <section> or any other appropriate HTML element to define your section.
Step 2: Assign an ID
To create a link that jumps directly to a specific section, we need to assign an ID attribute to the destination section. The ID should be unique within the page and can be assigned using the id attribute.
Note: The ID must start with a letter and can only contain letters (a-z), digits (0-9), hyphens (-), or underscores (_).
Example:
<section id="destination-section">
<!-- Content of the destination section -->
</section>
Step 3: Create the Link
Now, let’s create a link that will navigate us to the destination section on another page. You can use an anchor tag (<a>) along with the href attribute.
Example:
<a href="page-url#destination-section">Go to Destination Section</a>
In this example, replace page-url with the actual URL of the destination page and destination-section with the ID of the section you want to link to.
Step 4: Testing
It’s important to test your links to ensure they are working as expected. Open your destination page and click on the link you created. The page should scroll down to the specified section.

In this tutorial, we learned how to link to a specific section in another page using Webflow. By following these steps, you can create a better user experience by allowing users to navigate directly to relevant content. Remember to assign unique IDs to your sections and test your links for proper functionality.
