Description of problem

The last query which I had was regarding this only, however, the responses there helped me. The Anchors aren't working in BB code. Hence please help me.

I have checked this: https://help.forumotion.com/t33347-html-anchor-tag-problems?highlight=anchor

But it is for HTML and not BB code.

Please help me.

Could you please post a picture of your problem to understand it better?

Regards,

As you can see I want to do something like when we click on one of the sections we directly got to that section. So I need help in BBCode.

@Whole India

I already told you how to do this in this topic: /t159910-not-able-to-make-a-table-of-content-with-link-in-it#1116017

This is working, so you should be okay with that code.
Am I wrong?

Regards,
TC.

@Whole India

The bbcode

Code: [id]

is not a valid bbcode. I'd recommend at least adding a div there just to target the wishing part using html.

Example:

Code:

[center][b][i]Article 1: The Basic Provisions of the Indian Region[/i][/b][/center]
Section 1: The Region of India is a free and open democracy, which shall be sovereign and endowed with a constitutional structure. Violation of the constitutional structure, or attempts to violate the democratic rights and freedoms this constitution endows on its citizens shall be deemed as treason against the region.
Section 2: The flag of the Indian Region shall be established through common legislation in the Parliament of India. The official flag of India shall be the official governmental seal and standard.
Section 3: The official languages of the Region of India shall be Hindi and English. The government may introduce additional recognized languages through statutory law.
Section 4: Citizenship in the Region of India shall be a constitutional institution, regulated by the Parliament of India, in coordination with the provisions of this constitution. Nations must have a world assembly member nation within the region of India in order to gain citizenship, or otherwise must provide justification to the government of India for a lack of World Assembly status. Further provisions for citizenship may be provided for in law passed by the Parliament of India.
Section 5: Any changes including the amendment, repeal, or revisal of any provision of this constitution must meet the standards imposed by the constitution. No amendment to this constitution may be made to limit or otherwise restrict the democratic freedoms of the citizens of India. Amendments to the Constitution of India must be proposed and passed by the Parliament of India in a majority vote of the body, and then must be referred to the population of India in a referendum, where the majority of the region must vote in favor of the amendment in order for such action to take effect.
Section 6: The right to vote in regional or interregional elections within the Region of India shall be limited to those nations who shall hold citizenship status, and be officially registered with the Indian government.
Section 7: The RMB is considered a public forum, and posts on this platform, or any platform administered by the Indian government, shall be protected under the freedom of speech. The government may move to suppress posts on these forums should they be deemed to violate regional security, or infringe on constitutional authority.
Section 8: Civil rights and liberties may only be restricted in times of regional emergency, or upon conviction from a recognized Indian court, or interregional court, for criminal violation. Such restrictions must be provided for in legislation from the appropriate body.
Section 9: All citizens are expected to act in good faith while exercising their rights.

Anchors are made like this :

Code:

[table  id="Intro" class="toc"][tr][td][/td][/tr][/table]

and inserted just before your section title.

problem with anchor is that it always shows on top when you load it, and top is always used with toolbar and navigation on ModernBB
To fix that, just add to your CSS the following code

Code:

.toc {
  visibility: hidden;
  margin-bottom: 60px;
}

You dont want to see the table, even if it's empty ? Visibility hidden is for that
And just change margin-bottom value to fit your needs.

Here is the result without any CSS

I tried this one, it didn't work, but the one after it worked. What is CCS by the way. I will just test the code, once it works my problem's solved.

For the first code you need to enable HTML

CSS -> ACP > Display > Colors > CSS Stylesheet tab.

Without CSS like here, titles are hidden under toolbar and navigation. CSS fixes that

How to enable HTML for all? I enabled it for me but it didn't work.

-> Enabling HTML

With HTML enabled, it becomes easier.
No need to reload the page, you skip to the anchor like on wikipedia for example.

Working code with HTML enabled (careful, former users will need to activate HTML too, but new users will get it enabled without doing anything)
