  Hi everyone, I’ve finished building a site using the Lodestar theme and I’m pretty happy with it (not live yet). But I’m hoping there’s a way to make the links from the menu jump down to the relevant panel of the static page. At the moment, they’re just opening up a new page for the relevant panel. I can’t seem to find any help on the support pages to enable me to do this. Appreciate any help anyone can offer.
  Cheers

  Hi there,

  Lodestar is not designed to have a page-jump menu – menu links go to the pages themselves, rather than the page’s panel on the front page.

  But you can create a page-jump menu – each panel has its own unique ID, for example, the Name panel has the id panel2. You can find that ID using the browser inspector – right click on the panel title and select Inspect or Inspect Element. Then look for the line that resembles <span class="lodestar-panel-title">Panel 2</span>

  Next, edit or create a custom menu, and instead of pages, add custom links to the menu. Adding #panel2 as the URL will have that menu item jump to the Name panel.

  That’s great advice. Thanks kokkieh very much. I’ll check that out and get back to you if I have any issues.
  Cheers and all the best
