Bug: Incorrect link for the "Wight" paragraph in the Monster Manual. It should be "https://www.dndbeyond.com/sources/mm/monsters-w#Wight" as its in the URL, but when you hover over (or copy) the Wight link get just this one, "https://www.dndbeyond.com/monsters/wight". Close, but no cigar. :-) Fix it when you have nothing else to work on. BTW, I LOVE the links...it makes things so much easier.

So when you go into the MM you get it showing the latter link to the actual Wight page?
If so, then that is how those pages work, the link NEXT to the Wight name at that location is the link to the page it takes you to if you were to click the actual monster name. NOT the page you are presently on within the MM. That #reference that you find in the directory of the MM and in the left side menu is only to take you to that part of the page.
PS: It does it with ALL the monsters listed in there.

I think the problem is it doesn't allow you to click the chain link and only allows you to click to monster title. It is "behind" the monster title. This can be fixed by applying z-index of 1 to the chain link.

That isnt the problem either. You can click on the chainlink and it will take you to the Monster page in question.
I think PiousMight is getting himself confused when it comes to the MM with the chain link. There is no need to have a link just taking you back to that section of the MM when you are just wanting to look at a single monster, since the side menu does that for you. The # link that is shown in the image is used to link to a reference point within an actual page from those such as the Players, Basic Rules or DMG. Or any other book.

Well if that's not the problem they are referencing it is another problem. Watch the gif they posted above. You can not do that on the monsters page as it is behind the link to the actual monster title link. I'll be happy to make a video if you still don't understand what I mean.
Saying there isn't a need for it is wrong as that's the entire point of this feature. To have a link that brings you directly to that section. In this case the monster in the monster manual. Yes the side menus do the same in this case but that doesn't mean the feature is working as intended currently.
Edit: I made the video see spoiler tag
You can still get to the monster page by clicking the actual name of the monster.
What is the most recent (September 2021) updates to the compendium for the mobile app? Multiple books have relatively large size updates, but I cannot find anywhere what the changes are prior to downloading? Is there a list or summary of the changes that have been made?

Such a little thing can mean so much! Thank you!
Honestly? This is a pretty solid update, and it's something that deserved to be shouted out from the rooftops during the dev updates.
Awesome! :D
Thank you! This was a pet peeve of mine.
Thank you! I came here just to look what is going on as I saw all my books had update available on them 😄
P.S. would be hugely appreciated if, in a case of update, there was a little referendum what that update is about. Thanks 😊
Very helpful! Thank you very much.

Could…uh… could some one ELI5 this for me?
I see the video, but i can’t tell when the action starts or what is really happening.
Click a link symbol, scroll, click another link symbol, paste it in the browser and it jumps to a place that is neither link that was clicked? huh?
TIA
If you go to any section header and mouse over, you'll see a link icon appear
Click that icon and the page will update to take you to a URL that links directly to that header
This URL can be shared to allow you to quickly point people directly to certain parts of the compendium
