    Description

      Summary

      If the page contains an Anchor Macro in a different page from the link pointing it, it will not work. The page will be accessed but it will not scroll to the anchor.

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Create a new page
      2. Create a new link to the Anchor. Through the Add Hyperlink button on the editor, go to Advanced and add a link to the anchor you've just created (Page Name#anchorname)
      3. Create a new Page
      4. Create an anchor with the name of the link in this different page. (example: anchorname)

      Expected Results

      The link should redirect to the Anchor

      Actual Results

      It will redirect to the page but not scroll to the anchor position.

      Workaround

      Open the link in a new tab. The new tab will correctly lead to the anchor.
