Wouldn't it be great if
when one wants to redirect a user to a part of the documentation
now we have to describe the part of the page of the documentation
to implement HTML anchors so we can redirect the person to the right part of the page of the documentation

example: redirect a user to the submasters.
https://www.qlcplus.org/docs/html_en_EN/vcslider.html
and you have to tell them to look under 'Configuration - Submaster Tab'

With this feature implemented, it would become https://www.qlcplus.org/docs/html_en_EN ... #submaster

Long time ago, I've added some of the anchors manually, for the exact same purpose (see e.g. the source of https://www.qlcplus.org/docs/html_en_EN ... swers.html SPAN id=)

The proper way to go is to convert the docs from HTML to some markup language and use generator to generate HTML, PDF, etc. and it will take care of the anchors automatically.
See viewtopic.php?t=13337 and viewtopic.php?p=51061#p51061

If you are interested, I can publish somewhere partial conversion that I did around that time.
