Need Help With Anchor Code in a Blog Post

Hi all, 

I want to try and make a 'jump to' section in a long blog post. I've done lot of research on my own and figured out the simple coding with the ID name and trying to use the # with the name in the link editor, but it never works, it just doesn't work. When I copy the whole slug of my site and then at the ID with the #, it just takes me to the top of the page, not the section where my code block is. Am I using the wrong code? Every tutorial site I've seen used different letters inside the <> and I've tried them all, <div> </h4> <p> and I don't even know what any of those mean anyway. Is it because it's a blog post and not a page? Even thought I did try and do a test on one of my pages and that didn't work either. I'm just not sure what my issue is. 

Thanks 

First, add a Code Block with something like this

<div id="contact"></div>

Next, edit text link > paste this url

#contact
