Anchor text below table list length

    Tobias,
    I have an anchor link at the top of the page that connects to the text in an entry in the table.
    If the link is to an entry showing on the table it works fine.
    But, if the link is to an entry below the viewable table it doesn’t work.
    For instance, if the table is showing 25 entries of 50, but the anchor link is to entry 35, it doesn’t work.
    Conceptually I can see that the link must first refer to the table contents, but I’m not sure exactly how to do that.
    Thanks,
    Will

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hi,

    thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.

    Unfortunately, it’s not possible to have an anchor link to a row/entry in the table that’s not on the first “page” of the paginated table. The reason is that this simply is not “visible” when the page is loaded.
    If you want to make an anchor link go directly to the table, you could use the HTML ID of the table, which looks like tablepress-3 (where 3 is the table ID).
    In your example, such an anchor URL could look like

    https://www.photothermal.com/table-sandbox-2/#tablepress-3

    Using that in a link will take you directly to the table (but not any special row).

    Regards,
    Tobias
