Scroll to elements or sections in websites or funnels in GoHighLevel

Explore three techniques for anchoring or scrolling to elements or sections within a website or funnel:

Quick Tips & How-to:

  • To anchor/ scroll within the same funnel/website, you will need to use the CSS selector ID
  • To anchor/ scroll to a section in another funnel/website page please use the page URL with the CSS selector ID appended at the end:

Ex: https://www.URL.com/funnelpath#CSS SELECTOR

(This will also work for subdomains)

Some common use cases to use anchor/ scroll to elements are:

  • Linking “Table of Contents” items to their corresponding sections
  • Linking “Terms of Service” for quick access to important sections 
  • Linking sections of your “scripts” for staff when handling prospects
  • Linking your “Navigation Menu” to the Pricing table that is located in a specific section of your funnel/ website
  • “Book a Call” button that links to a booking widget in another funnel or website
  • Specific Video located in a section of a funnel/ website
  • Multiple buttons to one section of your website/funnel like an opt in form ect

Let’s take a look at how you would find your #CSS SELECTOR ID

1. Head into the Builder 

Select the area you wish to navigate to by clicking on it. Ensure that the chosen section or element is visibly highlighted, perhaps in a distinctive shade of green.

Using a button element in the builder

There are 2 primary ways to link a specific section of a page to a button within the funnel/ website builder (circled in red).

Ideal for linking across different funnel & website pages. This is achieved by inputting the page URL with the #CSS SELECTOR ID appended at the end.

For this reason we recommend using the URL+CSS selector method to ensure that your links do not break.

1. Click on NAVIGATION MENU element

For this example we will anchor the “Book a Call” option to a booking widget section located in another funnel/ website.

Click on the edit pencil next to "Book a Call"
