Thanks to both of you for the response!
@OpenGeek: The link below is being generated by WayFinder. Not sure if this is a bad practice with WayFinder, but in the document tree I’ve created three weblinks with the link being the anchors in the parent page. These anchors appear in the menu as children of that parent page. So, it looks like this:
WayFinder Menu:
<ul class="parent">
<li><a href="[~1~]">Parent</a>
<ul class="children_anchors">
<li><a href="[~1~]#Anchor1">Child Anchor</a></li>
<li><a href="[~1~]#Anchor2">Child Anchor 2</a></li>
<li><a href="[~1~]#Anchor3">Child Anchor 3</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><a href="[~5~]">Other Page</a></li>
<li><a href="[~6~]">Other Page2</a></li>
</ul>
Content of Active Parent Page:
<a name="Child Anchor"><h2>Section 1</h2>
<p>Pellentesque habitant morbi tristique senectus et netus et malesuada fames ac turpis egestas.</p>
<a name="Child Anchor 2"><h2>Section 2</h2>
<p>Pellentesque habitant morbi tristique senectus et netus et malesuada fames ac turpis egestas.</p>
<a name="Child Anchor 3"><h2>Section 3</h2>
<p>Pellentesque habitant morbi tristique senectus et netus et malesuada fames ac turpis egestas.</p>
The anchors in the menu do work and do take you to that content on the parent page. The problem is that when you click on the anchor links in the menu, the page refreshes with the anchor content as the top of the page, and you can’t scroll back to the top.
For example, if I clicked on the "Child Anchor 3" in the menu, the page would refresh and Child Anchor 3 would be the very top of the page. I couldn’t scroll back up to Child Anchor, nor Child Anchor 2, nor anything that was above that. The entire top of the page is gone.
The more I’ve messed around with this seems like it has more to do with the way that the page is loading than the plug-in. Is this a page caching issue?
@sharkbait: Thanks for the suggestion! I’m still new to ModX, but can that snippet solve the issue I described above. Seems more to deal with pagination problems. I know I wasn’t clear about it before, but ditto isn’t being used, and there is no pagination involved.
Thoughts?
