I need to link to a particular #anchor on a page from within the WYSIWYG editor.
However, if I start by using Link to Entry in the Rich Text editor, Redactor adds its own 'anchor' (with the same syntax as the Reference Tag for the entry page), and any additional anchors I add to the URL using the Edit Source functionality are ignored.
How would you suggest creating enabling users to create links to specific parts of Entry pages from within the Rich Text editor?
As of Craft 2.5.2759 this is now possible.
It is now possible to include custom URL fragments in links to entries within Rich Text fields, alongside the entry's reference fragment (e.g.
href="my-entry#custom-fragment#entry:123").
This is more of a workaround than a truly official method. The #entry:id you are seeing is more of a reference for Craft to figure out the correct URL when you edit the entry later. If you were to look at the link live, you would notice that the hash is missing.
The workaround is to create a link to an entry. Then, either save and return or toggle Edit Source. When you return, you can click on the link to find a tiny popup giving you the option to Edit or Unlink. When you edit, you can change the hash to anything you like. It should save just fine.
Link to Entry Anchor if you will.
