Anchors not working properly

Hi guys, im trying to add some anchors to long blogposts.
Im using the code: a name=”anchorname”></a (with the obvious brackets in front and behind) in the text to create the anchors and link them lateron. However the link doesnt work properly. It jumps kinda near the anchor, but not on it. So most of the time this results in showing the desired chapter but 10 lines too low…

What is the correct way to get anchors to work in posts in Newspaper?

Hi Catalin,

Ive did exactly that, but that is the thing; it wont work. Once the anchor link is clicked, it jumps down to the correct section of the page, but still several sentences too low. So the visitor misses the first few sentences of that chapter.

Placing the anchor higher does not seem to solve the issue weirldy enough.

I hope you can help!
