Text Marker

This tool is designed to help you create paragraph links for articles on jw.org^®. By entering the specific paragraph number from the web version of an article, the tool generates a unique URL that directs publishers straight to the desired paragraph. This tool is especially useful when you want to share a particular section of an article with others, ensuring they are automatically directed to the exact content you wish to highlight. Additionally, it allows you to save these links for future reference, making it easier to revisit important information without having to navigate through the entire article.

How to Use

This tool may be complicated to use for some publishers. If you are struggling to use this tool, it is recommended to use the JW Web Add-on instead. Follow these basic steps to use this tool:

1. Go to jw.org and open your desired article.
2. Look for the paragraph you want to create a URL link for.
3. Count the paragraphs from the beginning of the article to the desired paragraph.
4. Remember to count the title and header as paragraphs if necessary. These are considered paragraph 1 or 2, respectively.
5. If the article is in a question-and-answer format, skip the questions as they are counted after all other paragraphs.
6. Once you have the paragraph number, copy the URL from the Share feature, enter it in the input box, and enter the paragraph number in the next input box.
7. Follow all other instructions in the form and submit.
8. After submission, a generated link with the paragraph number will be shown. You can now save or share it.

Limitations

This tool has limitations, especially regarding how paragraphs are numbered. The paragraph numbers written in the text do not correspond to the web paragraph numbers. In fact, the title or heading is also considered a paragraph, usually as paragraph 1 or 2. Adding a paragraph marker to a media content will be ignored by the website.

This tool is not compatible with the following publications:

1. Online Bibles
