- How to add Anchors into the new Google Sites. Anchors allow you to link to specific parts of a Webpage with the Google site you have made. This video shows a workaround to achieve that. Great for educators creating websites for students, or students using them for Portfolios etc.
Please note this does open in a new tab currently.

Thank you so much for this. I tried to link to an anchor in the middle of another page and it also works. Tks a lot.
Quite helpful and succint video. Thanks you very much. I have been cracking my head over whether this was possible before I got your video.
Thanks, that was helpful. I struggled to find that info and then your no nonsense page came up. Appreciated.
Brilliant. And also nice to listen to. Calm, simple, no blabla. Thanks!
Thanks a million this was my main aim with my videos
Thanks man! This makes my website that I'm making for school look more full and less sparse as well. Kind of sucks that it opens a new tab but at the moment there's nothing that can be done. Thanks again!
Yo! Thanks for this! Appreciate the feedback and as you say nothing can be done about tab! Had some right abuse over that so cheers !
Agree this is not a good idea since it opens a new tab. I tried using the Embed, adding anchors, and hyperlinks but that doesn't work either:
Jump to bottom
Bottom
Thanks so much! This is useful for a website that my students created content for this semester.
Allison Hutchison, PhD this is great to hear :) pleased it helped :)

Excellent advice. Thank you.
Thank you :)
Very helpfull! Thanks!
Very useful. Thank you
Works perfect. Thanks. :)
Any idea how can we add a Word table or any table in Google site? I want to show a table.
This is really helpful and so nicely laid out. Thanks.
Q: Is it possible to create a page and the page button (at the top) is a link itself? So just clicking on the page redirects you somewhere else in a new tab.
How to open the section of the page in the same tab? like without opening the new tab?
Awesome, thanks a lot
Thank you!
This is exactly what I needed! Thank you so much!!
You're so welcome!
Hi! can you add an email in a subpage? If I have a page that says contact us, how do I get the email I have put in the subpage to go directly to email?
very useful ...thanx
Thank you for your help.
No problem Roberto thanks for reaching out
Thank you!!!!
great info, thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
Question - can the button link be used from another outside of the site source, like a digital newsletter? I want to direct folks to certain sections of the site when they're reading some other digital communication?
Yes just use full link 👍
Beautiful!
is there a way to do a smooth scroll down the page instead of the link jumping to a page reload instance? thanks! great vid
Not that I know of :(
I notice that it opens up another tab... is there anyway to link to part of the webpage but it wont open another tab?
I hit a problem, I followed your video however on the first stage ( insert button, cancel & publish) when I hit publish I got the "return to editor" notice. What have I done wrong?
Question?
I see that you have some links at the bottom of the page. How do I do that without having to using a button
hi, thanks a ton for the great video. This was a great solution. Edit: I need to see if this opens in a new tab
Think it does open a new tab now which is a real shame. I’m trying to find an alternative but thanks for reaching out
teachblend have you found a way yet? I don't want it to open a new tab
@@teachblend : Did you find the alternative to open the link in same page. Thanks in advance
Good , How can do the anchor in menu navigation on google sites,
thanks a lot
Anybody know? How to make anchor link open same tab?
Thanks for your video Phil. I am wondering if the heading link functionality has again been removed by Google. I am not able to see the links in my published site. Please advise.
All good Phil. I have answered my own question :-) For the link icon to appear in the published website, we need to activate this function in the Editor by going into Settings then Viewer Tools then Anchor Links. Also, I broke several links when I renamed the page containing the headings to which I was linking. I was able to insert refreshed links in Editor mode and all the links resumes working OK.
Hope this is helpful to others.

After editing the internal links, it is good practice to deactivate the Anchor Link visibility using the method described above and toggling off the Anchor Links.
Brilliant mate thanks for the detailed response applogise for the delay covid hit the household
i'm sorry to says that in my sites I tried but that kind of link sign i can't find
It opens a new tab... Is there a way to open on the same page and just automatically scroll down?
Hi/Hello! If I want to make links "At the top on the page", let's say to 3 different sections of the same page, And then do not want a new tab to be opened. How do you do that?
I think this video might answer your question ruclips.net/video/c0Iy0YBubNE/видео.html
I found Table on contents useful.
Love it! My only druthers is that each anchor button opens a new page. If there a fix?
Nope ;( its a shame
This is great, but I notice the link to the "anchor" is opening in a new tab. Is there any way to make it open in the same tab, so that it looks like you're navigating within the same page? Thanks! :)
Its not the best solution google stopped it so only this way at moment :(
@@teachblend Thank you so much! I really appreciate your reply, and the great video! Please take care & be safe.
@@teachblend I'm curious. How is it not the best solution? Opening in a new tab will distract the reader.
@@bbnCRLB Read again I said the solution I have provided is not the best soloution.
@@teachblend Hey mate, great video. Is this still the best solution with the links because I am creating a landing page website with everything on one page to avoid the opening in a new tab issue? Thanks
Hey man! I got an assigment from gsites. The problem is the new tab, u have any way to fix it? I have to use the navigation bar to link to sections in the same page, any possible way to do it? Sorry for my english it is not my mother tongue. Also I'm a bit in a hurry, sorry for bother lmao
Ha ha no problem. I’ve not heard anymore updates from Google on this! It’s not actually supported by Google and was the best I could come up with. You’re English is spot on by the way! Sorry I couldn’t be more help mate
@@teachblend Thank u man! No worries, actually I just talked with my teacher and he said the same thing. At least in gsites there's no way to do it rn.
No worries mate! I’m still trying to figure a better Hack and will defo let you know! Good luck with ya studies!!
Wondering if you have found a solution to it opening in a new tab? Thank you
That is why I am here, I can't take how it opens in new tab, have you figured it out?
@@Dillinger86 It looks like in the old editor you could write some custom HTML and avoid opening a new tab, but with the new editor this is not currently possible (as far as I've been able tell). It seems like Google is slowly moving over some of the old features, but this is not yet one of them. One solution (while ugly but it works) is you can add the table of contents component and hide all of links except the one you are wanting to show. This is an ugly solution because it can't be placed inline with other component, but it works.
@@Dillinger86 You could also possibly use the embed component, and instead of clicking 'By URL' you could use 'Embed Code' and then enter the following HTML: Click Here However you run into the same issue of it not being very practical or pretty. (Also you may need to wrap that code in an for it to function properly)
@@tyleredwards2147 I figured it out, what I was doing was using a page link & pasting it in, instead of using the internal link
The way I do it:
Go to plus at bottom right. Hover over plus and you will see “New link”. Click. Paste anchor link and give it a name. Use as a subpage for quick navigation from menu. Alternatively just use the insert “Table of contents” function.
can you click that button without opening a new window? I mean, only the scroll bar will move to that area at the same window?
Nope :( sorry did mention this in description it was a best fix type video
as of today 8/31/2021 it doesn't work
thanks
I must be missing something... I click publish (it doesn't open in a new tab), so I click preview and I don't see those little link buttons next to the headers? Can you please help me? :)
Hi, Neil, that's strange, preview won't work, have you named the site or has anyone on your Admin Disabled the publish site option? When you click on the publish do you get a black box at the bottom saying view site or anything?
@@teachblend I can view the site, it just doesn't pop up like your video. It also doesn't have the pictures of the little anchors.
@@njf84 open another browser and input the REAL url of your websites, and you will find it.
Thank you
You're welcome
i am able to do that, but how to avoid open new page/tab? i want everything to stick in one window experience
Cannot at moment its not great admittedly but its a workaround
Confused I couldnt seem to find the link beside a text/heading when previewing. Am i doing it wrong?
because you used a normal text. try to use heading or sub-heading
For me, this opens up a new tab, which is both inconvenient and slow. How, can one navigate between anchors within a page without getting out of it?
Christophe Caloz unfortunately this is the only way of doing it at the moment it does open a new tab! Looking into a fix
Hey, still not clear how you created those links on the topic headings, can you be more detail, each time I try publishing it does not work.
You publish the website. View the website. However over the heading. Select the blue link chain icon next to heading, Copy this and done
Can you make it though so it doesn't open in a new tab?
nope :(
Not working, opening on a new page. If using the Embed and force to open on top doesn't open on self opens inside the embed.
Says this in description
Estou tentando usar uma âncora numa página em HTML puro no Google Sites e ele não está aceitando o bom e velho #
Nesse caso, imagino que eu não vá conseguir um link através de um título.
Useful
Glad you think so!
A fucking genius. Tks man.
Welcome my mate!
Does it open a new tab each time?
Hi Kevin yes it does. Looking at away of getting around this. Ill keep you posted
@@teachblend Thank You
This is not good. Tks anyway.
@@teachblend Any update on this solution?
@@blobskate Not currently, this is the best workaround I have found. Its unfortunate as its a functionality Google actually stripped out from the old Google Sites
Does not work all the time in a cell phone for some reason. I think the redirect notice screws it up.
Thats a shame
Useful but let's say I dont want the link to open a new tab. How do ai do that?
No fix now google stopped it :(
its useful but it opens a separate page can we link to the _self
Not found a fix for the tab now opening if i do will post
Sorry but this does not work for google sites currently as it does not allow to publish without making any actual changes. Anybody know how to solve this in 2023? Google should have added a much simpler since it is very common to add links to sections.
There is a way to do it where it links to the same page using the table of contents under Insert tab.
Looks horrible tho :(
I know 🤷🏻♂️
That's what we got, right?
@@Zaidalboy sure is 🤦♂️ wish Google would just the proper functionality can’t be that hard surley
Thats helpful but really clunky!
Agree
Sites google new, cannot do this
Sorry
to bad it opens in a new window :(
This is not an anchor page should scroll down to the target heading, not opening to the new tab
Have you found a better solution?
@@teachblend its missing feature in google site which makes it pretty garbage so i decided to move another service
@@nataliapalweski2072 which one?
very HELPFULL THANKUU SO MUCH
More than welcome
Very useful . Thank you
