This is an explanation of this module that will only be visible on the cms guide and in the content editor in the admin.

This module is a marker to work in conjunction with the "In Page Navigation Links" Section/module.

To demonstrate the function of this, on the CMS guide, please find "In Page Navigation - Section (add new)" and click on "Link 1".  Doing so should have scrolled the page down to this section.

How this works:

  1. Please note the identifier field of this module in the CMS admin (it will not be visible on the CMS guide)
  2. By default, it should be "example"
  3. Go to "In Page Navigation - Section (add new)" in the CMS admin 
  4. Click in the middle of "Link 1" (in between "i" and n", for example) and then find "insert/edit link" from the buttons above the editor.
  5. Click on "insert/edit link"
  6. Note that "Link 1"  has a "url" field of "#example"
  7. As long as each link/marker pair has a matching url/link (url for links, identifier for the markers). The modules should be set up correctly.
  8. Note that links must have a "#" at the front of each url in order for the modules to work. For example, a marker with an identifier field that has "product" must have a matching link with a url field that has "#product" in order for the in page navigation to work.

At iRobot, I have found a culture of teamwork extending across teams. I often get connected with coworkers who have encountered roadblocks similar to what is slowing me down on a given task. Everyone so far has been willing to point me in the direction of a solution when they can. Seemingly niche challenges are never as novel as they seem, and you definitely don't need to solve them alone.
