'Linking to Another Page' Warning When Using Page Sections #690

Closed amboutwe closed 3 years ago

amboutwe commented 8 years ago

What did you expect to happen?

No warning message when the link is to a section within the same page.

What happened instead?

Warning message: 'You're linking to another page with the focus keyword'

How can we reproduce this behavior?

  1. Create a post with the sample text below.
  2. Replace ADD-LINK-HERE with a link to a section within the same post like http://example.com/my-fantastic-post/#section
  3. Enter focus keyword 'sit'.
  4. Warning appears.

    Technical info

    • Platform: WordPress
    • Platform version: 4.5.2
    • Yoast SEO version: 3.2.5

Sample Text Lorem ipsum dolor <a href="ADD-LINK-HERE">sit</a> amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.

This is fixed in 1.4. Relevant PR: https://github.com/Yoast/YoastSEO.js/pull/722

Please re-open issue to fix a variation as the full URL is fixed but not if the internal link is just for a #section

In Yoast SEO v11.7, if the section link includes an absolute URL, the "You're linking to another page with the words you want this page to rank for" warning isn't triggered. See examples below.
