The Anchor macro allows you to add a target to a specific part of a page so that a link can be added to jump the reader to that section. These can be especially useful for allowing your readers to navigate to specific parts of a long document. Anchors are invisible to the reader when the page is displayed.


Use the Anchor macro

To add the Anchor macro:

  1. In the Confluence editor, select  >  View more
  2. Browse or search for "anchor" and select it
  3. Select Insert

You can also type / onto the page to bring up the same list you'd see by selecting from the toolbar.

After you've inserted the anchor, you can create a link to an anchor on a page.


To edit the Anchor macro:

  1. Select the macro placeholder. The floating toolbar appears.
  2. Select Edit. The right panel opens.
  3. Modify the parameters. Your changes are saved as you go.
  4. Resume editing the page, and the panel closes.
