  2. Add an anchor in your widget

The url = #Colophon

I like it Loes.
WP is not my strong point though.
So I have a question.
What happens to those pages/posts URL you are linking to?

What I mean is if you have them in your Site Info wont that make the Posts/Pages URLs redundant and you would have to delete them in Google Console?

The URL' s are not deleted, only the links to it in the top menu, that has no effect in Google
