Description (last modified by )
The current FAQ has no way to retrieve the link to a particular question. Per #4519 it needs to be a button for accessibility reasons, but that means you can't right-click to copy the link. So instead you have to go into your browsers dev tools, copy the anchor link and combine that with the current URL.
It could be helpful to add a link icon next to the question title that holds the full anchor link.

@helgatheviking Hi there!
What would be the use case for copying the anchor tag? Is it to share it externally?
As a note, when you click on the anchor link, it will update your browser's url (Tested in Chrome). You could also copy it from there.

@dufresnesteven Hi! The use case is that I find myself linking people from support to the FAQ. Read the manual and all that! :)
I hadn't noticed the browser url updating, so thanks for the tip! Still I think what is happening in the support articles (with the linked #) is great and would be useful in plugin pages too.

@helgatheviking Got It.
I am by no means an Accessibility expert, but I think we could change that button to a div and add role="button"
to achieve the same affect.
I'll do some research and circle back.
Although the anchor tag (#) does exist, it think it would be bizarre to have it in the toggle for a collapsible section.
Just noticed the # signs being used in some documentation that do exactly what I'm trying to describe. Example: https://wordpress.org/support/article/debugging-in-wordpress/#wp_debug
