Anchors throwing 404s

[danken00]

I've got a few anchors on my page, and when links to those anchors are being followed, they're getting marked as 404s. A typical example:

<a href="#fast-service" id="fast-service-link" title="Fast service times">Fast service times</a>

As a link to:

<div class="hiccup-right light-grey how-we-are-here-panel" id="fast-service"></div>

And the error:

Resource not found linked from https://[mydomain]/about-us to https://[mydomain]/about-us#fast-service
Status code: 404

Is this expected behaviour?

Hi,

I am having the exact same issue on my side. Did you find the root cause as you closed your issue ?

Thanks

hi @sgaestel, this was a while ago so I had to go back through my notes. See if the setting below helps:

'link-checker': {
    postDeploy: {
        site: 'www.mysite.com',
            options: {
                callback: function (crawler) {
                    crawler.addFetchCondition(function (url) {
                        return !url.path.match(/\.js|#.+$/i); // Ignore JS and anchor links
                    });
                }}
            }
        }

I should've commented on it when I closed it - sorry about that!
