How to add a hyperlink anchor in a Sharepoint wiki-page

Question

In Sharepoint (2010) wiki pages it is easy enough to add a hyperlink, but how can one add a hyperlink anchor without editing the messy html?

Answer 1

The wiki editor could make this easier :-)

This method works for me...

1. Highlight a word in the header where you want to insert an anchor; then copy the word
2. Press Ctrl-K. In my instance default text appears in the address field "/site/site/", click OK to accept the default
3. You'll notice that a Link Tools ribbon appears. Paste the anchor name into the anchor field
4. Go to your link text and highlight it; then insert a link "from address." Add "#" and paste again.

I have no idea if this will work in your case. Step 2 is weird. But it's the only way that I can invoke the "link tools" ribbon. Too bad this isn't part of the Link options from the get go.

[[EDIT: I didn't notice this before but SharePoint inserts the anchor/id AND a href link and there's nothing you can do about it except edit the HTML so my answer isn't much of a solution, unfortuntately.]]
