I have a Foundry 2 site.  
Wondering if there’s a way to put in a clickable email link that essentially follows the scroll?  
Or at the very least is located at a specific point? As in, an easily noticeable email link where my product/service demo is located.

Thanks

Hi @zamboknee,

To be clear, you want to send an email with a link, and when the recipient of that email clicks that link, you want to:

- have your site open on the recipient’s device
- then automatically scroll to the right spot on a page

Correct?

You can do that using an anchor, which you add to the URL that you put in the email.

If you have the Foundry 2 Potion Pack add-on, here’s how (if you do not own the Potion Pack add-on for Foundry, you can still do the same with an [HTML anchor](https://www.w3docs.com/snippets/html/how-to-create-an-anchor-link-to-jump-to-a-specific-part-of-a-page.html), but it’s ugly and more fiddly):

- Open your RapidWeaver project

- Scroll down to the bit that you want the visitor to see when they click the link in your email

- In your Foundry 2 collection of stacks, you’ll find _Anchor_ (but **only** if you have the _Foundry 2 Potion Pack_ installed):  

- Drag it into your project, on the spot on the page where you’d want your email recipient to end up:  

- Note that, when you preview or publish your page, the anchor itself will remain invisible. It’s there, to be found if a visitor enters the URL with the anchor’s name attached (see below0, but for all other purposes - it’s not there.

- In the Anchor stack’s settings, make sure “Include icon” is unchecked, and enter a good, short name (without spaces!) in the “Anchor name” field. I entered “demo” here:  

- Publish your page

Now, in the email that you’ll send out, add the link to the page in question, but add a pound symbol (#) and then the anchor’s name to the end.

So for example:

```auto
https://examplesite/examplepage/index.html#demo

```

… assuming you named your anchor “demo”.

Send out the email, and when a recipient clicks on the link, he will be taken to the section where your anchor is located on the page.

Presto!

Cheers,  
Erwin

Wow. Thanks Erwin. Super detailed and very appreciative.  
I think I wasn’t clear in my original post.  
This is more for people who come to the website, check out my demo and want to get in touch with me.  
I want to create a visual button/clickable in the area of the demo so that they don’t have to hunt around for ‘contact’ info.

Also, does anyone have a copy of the Foundry 2 documentation?

Found a way.  
I just used the ‘Sticky Content’ stack from Foundry and put a ‘Button’ stack (Foundry).

No problem! I completely misread your question.

Good thing you figured a solution by yourself 🙂

The Foundry 2 documentation has been taken offline, but you can still access parts of it on the Wayback Machine (**[link](https://web.archive.org/web/20240918151208/https://f2docs.elixirgraphics.com/)**). Unfortunately the videos don’t work.

Cheers,
