# Link: Add Anchor Links

The **Link** element in ClickFunnels allows you to easily create hyperlinks or navigation links, guiding users to other sections, pages, or external URLs. This element is a versatile alternative to buttons, allowing you to provide clickable text links for various actions like opening pop-ups, submitting forms, or navigating to another page. In this article, you'll learn how to add a Link element to your page and customize its settings for optimal user experience. ![](https://cdn.document360.io/e3762771-4bea-47c2-a830-5473d543417a/Images/Documentation/image(68).png)

## Adding a Link Element in the Page Editor

1. Inside the page editor, add a **Section** where you want to place the element.
2. Add a **Row** within that section.
3. Click the orange **+** **Plus** or **Add New Element** button inside the row to insert a new element.
4. From the **Content** category, select the **Link** element. ![](https://cdn.document360.io/e3762771-4bea-47c2-a830-5473d543417a/Images/Documentation/image(67).png)

Once the **Link** element is added, you can customize its appearance to fit your page design.

## Customizing the Link Element

When you hover over an element, its border will be highlighted in orange. To access an element's settings, click on the **gear** **⚙️ icon** or click directly on the element. ![](https://cdn.document360.io/e3762771-4bea-47c2-a830-5473d543417a/Images/Documentation/image-1731538243619.png)

### Top Margin

![](https://cdn.document360.io/e3762771-4bea-47c2-a830-5473d543417a/Images/Documentation/image-1751891362357.png)The **Top Margin** setting lets you control the space between the current container (section, row, flex, and element) and the container directly above it. If no previous container exists, the margin will be applied relative to the parent container. If no preceding container is added, the **Body** will be the parent. You can set top margin values independently for desktop and mobile by using the device icons (🖥️ & 📱 ). If no mobile value is specified, it will inherit the desktop setting by default. Use the slider or manually enter a value in pixels (`px`) or percentage (`%`) to create consistent spacing across screen sizes.

### Link Settings

The **Link Settings** allow you to configure the appearance and functionality of your link. Here’s an explanation of the key settings available:

![](https://cdn.document360.io/e3762771-4bea-47c2-a830-5473d543417a/Images/Documentation/image(69).png)

- **Link Name**: Enter the display text for your link. This is the clickable text users will see on the page.
- **Link Action or URL**: The setting lets you specify what happens when a user clicks the link. You can choose from several predefined actions or insert a **custom URL**. Here’s a breakdown of the available options:
  - **#open-popup**: Clicking the link will trigger the page popup to open.
  - **#submit-form**: This option submits an opt-in form when clicking the link.
  - **?next_funnel_step=true**: Clicking the link will redirect users to the next page in your funnel.
  - **#close-popup**: This action will close an already opened popup, functioning as the opposite of the open popup action.
  - **?page_action=mark_complete**: If you're using the link in a course lesson editor, selecting this action will mark the lesson as completed when clicked.
- **Target**: Select whether the link opens in the same or a new window.

### Padding

![](https://cdn.document360.io/e3762771-4bea-47c2-a830-5473d543417a/Images/Documentation/image-1751893545215.png)

The **Padding** settings control the space between the content and the inside edge of its container (such as a section, row, column, or element). This internal spacing helps ensure your content has room to breathe and appears visually balanced. Use the slider or manually enter a value in pixels (`px`) or percentage (`%`) to create consistent spacing across screen sizes.

![](https://cdn.document360.io/e3762771-4bea-47c2-a830-5473d543417a/Images/Documentation/image-1748444112770.png)

**Padding Options:**

- **Top**: Add space between the top of the element container and its content.
- **Bottom**: Add space between the bottom of the element container and its content.
- **Left + Right**: Adjust the horizontal spacing between the element container and its content.
- **Gap:** In particular elements, such as the **A****ccordion**, the gap property is added to establish spacing between the items within the container. For example, it is possible to adjust the gap between each accordion item within the Accordion element without defining padding at the top and bottom.

**Desktop & Mobile (🖥️ & 📱)Customization:**

The padding settings allow you to define separate values for **desktop** and **mobile** views. Use the **device toggle** at the top of the padding controls to switch between screen modes and adjust spacing accordingly. If no mobile value is specified, it will inherit the desktop setting by default.

This feature ensures your layout remains optimized for different screen sizes, enhancing the mobile and desktop experience.

### Typography

The **Typography** settings allow you to control the appearance of text in your element. These settings provide two views. You can select a predefined style (Small, Medium, or Large) that applies a consistent design across your page. If you select to override the predefined style, additional settings become available, allowing you to customize the text appearance manually.

- **Font Family**: This option allows you to select the font type for your text. ClickFunnels provides a range of popular fonts from the Google Fonts library. Additionally, you can upload and use your own custom fonts by navigating to ***Workspace Settings*** *>* ***My Assets*** *>* ***Fonts***. Once uploaded, your custom fonts will appear in the selection list for use.
- **Weight**: This option defines the thickness of the text. Depending on your desired emphasis, you can choose from **Thin**, **Regular**, or **Bold options**. Thin fonts provide a subtle look, while bold fonts create more visual impact.
- **Font Size**: You can adjust the text size using the slider or manually inputting a specific value. Additionally, you can choose between **rem** or **px** for the size measurement, such as **2rem** or **32px**. You can also set font size values independently for desktop and mobile by using the device icons (🖥️ & 📱 ).
  - **Rem** is a relative unit based on the base font size defined in your style guide. For example, if you select a text size of **2rem** and your style guide specifies a base font size of **16px** for desktop, the resulting text size will be **32px** for desktop view (i.e., 2rem × 16px = 32px).
  - **Px** is an absolute measurement, providing precise control over the text size.
- **Letter Spacing**: Adjust the space between individual letters. You can increase or decrease the value using the slider or input a specific value (measured in **rem**). More spacing spreads the letters apart, while less spacing brings them closer together. You can also set letter spacing values independently for desktop and mobile by using the device icons (🖥️ & 📱 ).
- **Line Height**: Controls the vertical space between lines of text. This is typically expressed as a percentage of the font size. A higher percentage increases the space between lines, improving readability, especially for larger blocks of text. You can also set line height values independently for desktop and mobile by using the device icons (🖥️ & 📱 ).
- **Color**: Use the color picker to select the text color. You can choose a predefined color from the **Style Guide** or create a custom color. When using the **Custom** color picker, you can select the color using the slider or input a specific HEX code. Additionally, you can adjust the **opacity** (Alpha value) using the second slider—moving it to the left reduces the opacity and makes the color more transparent, while moving it to the right makes it fully opaque.
- **Bold**: Similar to the **Color** option, you can select a color for the bold state of the text. This color will be applied when the text is set to bold, allowing you to differentiate it visually from regular text.
- **Link**: Like the **Color** option, you can apply a specific color to text containing a hyperlink. If the text is hyperlinked, the selected color will be used to style the link, helping to make it stand out.
- **Icon Color**: Choose the color of your icons (if applicable) to ensure they match your overall page design.
- **Text Casing**: Select how your text should appear in terms of capitalization:
  - **Lowercase**: All text in lowercase.
  - **Uppercase**: All text in uppercase.
  - **Capitalize**: Capitalize the first letter of each word.
- **Decoration**: Add text decorations such as:
  - **Underline**: Draw a line beneath your text.
  - **Strikethrough**: Cross out your text with a horizontal line.
  - **Overline**: Draw a line above your text.
- **Opacity**: Adjust the opacity of the text. The slider allows you to make the text more or less transparent. Moving the slider to the **left (0)** decreases the opacity (making the text more transparent), while moving it to the **right (1)** makes the text fully opaque.
- **Align**: Set the alignment of your text within its container. Based on your page design, you can choose to align the text to the **left**, **center**, or **right**.

### Background

The **Background** section allows you to set the element's background color. You can choose a predefined color from the **Style Guide** or create a custom color. When using the **Custom** color picker, you can select the color using the slider or input a specific HEX code. ![](https://cdn.document360.io/e3762771-4bea-47c2-a830-5473d543417a/Images/Documentation/image(59).png)

### Text Shadow

The **Text Shadow** section adds a subtle shadow behind your text, creating depth and improving readability. You can control the following parameters:

![](https://cdn.document360.io/e3762771-4bea-47c2-a830-5473d543417a/Images/Documentation/image(60).png)

- **Offset-x and Offset-y**: Adjust the horizontal and vertical positioning of the shadow.
- **Blur**: Set how blurred or sharp the shadow appears.
- **Color**: Choose the shadow color to match or contrast your page design.

### Control Panel

The **Control Panel** appears at the bottom of every container(Section, Row, Flex, and Element) in the page editor, offering quick access to essential settings and actions for that container. Here’s what each icon represents: ![](https://cdn.document360.io/e3762771-4bea-47c2-a830-5473d543417a/Images/Documentation/image(47).png)

- **ALL**: The container will be visible on all devices (desktop, tablet, and mobile).
- **Desktop (**🖥️**) Icon**: The container will only be visible in desktop view.
- **Mobile (**📱**) Icon**: The container will only be visible in mobile view.
- **Eye** **(👁️)** **Icon**: Use this to hide the container from the page. Once clicked, the container will be hidden in the editor but not deleted. You can click the **Layout** menu in the top navigation bar to find the hidden containers. Select All, Desktop, or Mobile icon to unhide in the editor.
- **Code** **(</>)** **Icon**: This icon opens the code editor, where you can insert custom CSS or JavaScript code to modify the container's behavior or styling.
- **Trash (**🗑️**) Icon**: Removes the container from the page editor entirely.

### Advanced Settings
