If you're talking about doing what Andrew said but within a post, yes, there is a way to do this.


You can create an anchor point in a post with the [anchor] bbCode, say [anchor]sectionname[/anchor].

And then make a link to that anchor by using [goanchor=sectionname]Link Text Here[/goanchor]


For example if you were creating a guide, it could look something like this:

[goanchor=link1]Link 1[/goanchor]
[goanchor=link2]Link 2[/goanchor]
[goanchor=link3]Link 3[/goanchor]

[anchor]link1[/anchor]
[SIZE="4"]Link 1 Heading[/SIZE]
General knowledge of things that are great.

[anchor]link2[/anchor]
[SIZE="4"]Link 2 Heading[/SIZE]
Lots of awesome information here.

[anchor]link3[/anchor]
[SIZE="4"]Link 3 Heading[/SIZE]
Crazy stuff you will not believe.

Then the result would look like below. Clicking on "Link 1" would take you further down the post to the section anchored off as "link1", "Link 2" to "link2", etc...

Link 1
Link 2
Link 3


Link 1 Heading
General knowledge of things that are great.


Link 2 Heading
Lots of awesome information here.


Link 3 Heading
Crazy stuff you will not believe.

Hope that answers your question. You can also find a list of all bbCode that's allowed on the forum here.
