How to remove anchor (#hash) from url after clicking a bookmark link

Question

on the site example.html i have the link href="index.html#section1 ".
when you click the link, the url is index.html#section1, but is there a way to only display index.html but still go to the Id #section1 ?

I found this: Removing anchor (#hash) from URL but i don't know how to use it since i only understand a little javascript. maybe someone can help out with a detailed instruction where to insert which code.

Answer 1

You can't change the data after the hash without re-directing the page but you can re-name it with

location.hash = "new-location"
