1. Insert into a clickable item

Insert a link into a clickable item (button, hyperlink, menu) you want to direct to in the email e.g. #WEEKLYUPDATE. The links should follow this format #NAMEOFANCHORLINK, in all capitals. So, we are using a button in this case, #WEEKLYUPDATE - in picture A. In picture B, we use a hyperlink:

A.

B. (Ensure Target is set to none)

2. Insert Link into Resulting Item

Now, we need to tell the email where the result should be. To do this, drag an HTML content block into your email just above where you'd like the destination to be.

3. Paste in this code:

<a name="XXX"></a>

You will need to replace XXX with the name of the link or button without the #, still all in capitals. So in this case, it would be <a name="WEEKLYUPDATE"></a>
