    My blog Loving Frugal Living I am working on a post. On another page of the blog, under the menu item, Quick Tips, is a sub-page, Video How-to Tips. On that sub-page are three embedded Youtube videos. I want to place a link in the post I am working on to the second of those three embedded videos. How do I do this? Thanks. I have made a lot of progress with my blog thanks to the support here.

    You can set a named destination anchor in your target page at the position you want the link to go to, and link to that named anchor on your new page.

    To do this, find the line of text above the video:

    <p>The next video illustrates how to fold a contour (fitted) sheet</p>

    and enter a named destination anchor before that text:
    <a name="fold-contour-sheet"></a>

    Then in your new page, you can make your link to the destination page with the named anchor specified in the url:

    <a href="https://lovingfrugalliving.com/quick-tips/video-how-to-tips/#fold-contour-sheet">Link to the video</a>
