title: anchorize
description: Takes a string and sanitizes it the same way as the [`defaultMarkdownHandler`](https://gohugo.io/getting-started/configuration-markup#configure-markup) does for markdown headers.

If [Goldmark](https://gohugo.io/getting-started/configuration-markup#goldmark) is set as `defaultMarkdownHandler`, the sanitizing logic adheres to the setting [`markup.goldmark.parser.autoHeadingIDType`](https://gohugo.io/getting-started/configuration-markup#goldmark). If [Blackfriday](https://gohugo.io/getting-started/configuration-markup#blackfriday) is set as `defaultMarkdownHandler`, this template function uses the [`SanitizedAnchorName` logic from Blackfriday](https://github.com/russross/blackfriday#sanitized-anchor-names) (the same applies when `markup.goldmark.parser.autoHeadingIDType` is set to `blackfriday`).
Since the `defaultMarkdownHandler` and this template function use the same sanitizing logic, you can use the latter to determine the ID of a header for linking with anchor tags.
```go-html-template
{{ anchorize "This is a header" }} --> "this-is-a-header"
{{ anchorize "This is also a header" }} --> "this-is-also----a-header"
{{ anchorize "main.go" }} --> "maingo"
{{ anchorize "Article 123" }} --> "article-123"
{{ anchorize "<- Let's try this, shall we?" }} --> "--lets-try-this-shall-we"
{{ anchorize "Hello, 世界" }} --> "hello-世界"
```
