  Several times I have been in need of creating anchor links to make reference to a previous post... I tried to use the url tag with just #msgXXXX but it doesn’t work.
  
  Here is how you can do it :
  
  1) Create the anchor with the following syntax :

  [anchor=name_of_anchor]

  
  
  2) Add you link this way :

  [iurl=#name_of_anchor]link[/iurl]

  And just to be thorough, you can create links to external web pages by highlighting text and clicking the little world icon, e.g. http://wiki.modxcms.com/index.php/Main_Page
  
  Which looks like:
  

  [url]http://wiki.modxcms.com/index.php/Main_Page[/url]

  
  
  But if you want the text of the link to read something other than the actual link (like this: MODx Wiki), use the construct like this:
  

  [url=http://wiki.modxcms.com/index.php/Main_Page]MODx Wiki[/url]

  Thanks for the information. The code you just gave out is that BBcode or html? Nice to know information.
