Hi guys

This site is still work in progress but the client has just asked if I can add a side bar or secondary nav to this page

which would enable anchor links to the various "sections' within the page. Is this possible?

Cheers

If your question is whether you can create and use anchor links in Squarespace, the answer is yes, and you can use them anywhere you can use regular links (so you could build a sidebar or secondary navigation section and populate with anchor links). Here's an article that explains how to create and use anchor links: https://support.squarespace.com/hc/en-us/articles/207135178-Creating-anchor-links

In my experience, you also have to add a "scroll-behavior" setting to your custom CSS to make the links work. This is the setting if you want a smooth scroll down to the section:

html {
  scroll-behavior: smooth;
}

And this is the setting if you want it to jump right to the section without a transition:

html {
  scroll-behavior: auto;
}

If this doesn't work for you, there are some other suggested solutions in this forum post you could try: 

Injecting this code appears to enable the desired smooth scrolling effect in Chrome, but not in Safari. We have many visitors who use Safari. How can we get smooth scrolling for Safari as well???
