How can I create a link to a place on the same Wiki page, perhaps to a specific heading two screens down from the top of the page?

Two things come to mind:
1) You can use the Table of Contents plugin. Insert this at the top of your page with "Insert Plugin" --> "PBwiki Magic" --> Table of Contents. Now, anything that is formatted as any of the three Header types will be linked to in this table of contents.
2) You can manually create your own anchors by creating an HTML plugin ("Insert Plugin" --> "PBwiki Magic" --> "HTML") and typing:
<a name="myanchor">
Then, when you want to make a link to it, make a link like normal, but choose the "URL" method and for "Protocol", choose other. Then insert this as the link:
#myanchor
It will act just like any other link, but be linked inline to another part of the same page.

Inappropriate?I want to create a link (a highlighted keyword) within a text that will link to that same word within another text. Any suggestions? I dont know much html, but am good at following instructions and at thinking logically....
I’m really wanting this knowledge and hoping someone will help, and I'm worried

Inappropriate?BTW, in my very first post, that HTML should be:
<a name="myanchor"></a>
That would be the proper HTML for that situation. That said, few browsers mess up the version without the closing tag originally posted, so "no harm no foul," right?
I’m amused

Inappropriate?Okay, let's say you have two pages, FrontPage and Party. You have the word "cake" on the FrontPage somewhere, and you'd like it to link to the word "cake" on Party. This is what you would do.
1) Go to Party and insert your cursor before the word "cake"
2) Click "Insert Plugin" --.> "PBwiki Magic" --> "HTML"
3) Insert:
<a name="CakeAnchor"></a>
4) Click OK and save the page
5) Go to FrontPage and highlight the word "cake"
6) Create a link like you normally would, but select "<other>" for the protocol and type this after it:
Party#CakeAnchor
7) Click Ok and Save!
That's it!

Inappropriate?Thanks so much for responding, but it doesn't seem to work for me, let me explain why:
1) Go to Party and insert your cursor before the word "cake"
2) Click "Insert Plugin" --.> "PBwiki Magic" --> "HTML"
3) Insert:
When you say "Go to Party" you mean go into editing on the page named "Party", right?
So I can do that and I can insert my cursor before the word "cake"
But then I do not see anywhere in the browser window that says "Insert Plugin" that I can click...
Please explain where I will click "Insert Plugin". Maybe the space i am working in looks different from yours?
I’m hoping I can understand this!

Inappropriate?Oh wait, are you using our Classic Editor or the Point-and-Click (word processor-style) Editor?
