That property only specifies which HTML tag the button will use, an `<a>` or `<button>` tag _(last time I checked it was just using a `<div>` regardless)_. If you try to use the Link property above you’re only available to link to a URL, a page within your site, or a resource within your site. There’s currently no concept of named (ids) anchors within a page in Elements.

It’s a great feature request as it’s something I often use, especially when I’m sharing something on a page as it allows me to jump users right to it by appending #{anchor-on-page} to the URL.

A little nudge for this feature. I want to link a button in the menu, to an HTML tag further down the page.

Is there a way to do this yet..?

Yes we fully support anchor tags, and it’s pretty cool 😊 Here’s how to do it…
