Anchor to a page with title containing ":" does not work

[Ollowain]

Hi guys,

my page i want to refer to is named "Customer: Germany" (all in the same space).

If I want to link the anchor "Holder" from an other page I type in

"Customer: Germany#Holder" 

However I always get Customer is not a recognised space. In my opinion this is caused by atlassian thinking the ":" means I want to refer to an page out of my current space.

Is there any solution that works for my page name?

Thanks

Hello @Ollowain,

The easiest way is to avoid inserting colons in page titles, but if you really need those you just need to include the spacekey in the link - even though you're linking to a page in the same space:

Spacekey:Pagename#Anchor

So let's say your page is in space with key = CUST:

CUST:Customer: Germany#Holder

Hope this helps!
