Have a hashtag-link for some other functionality than fullpage-navigation

[SNagel]

So i hope this is my last question, my fullpage.js-project is almost complete by now (and it's working great :)
One thing left to do ...

i have a header section (fixed above the fullpage container) that contains links to fullpagesections:
<a href="#sectionname">Section Name</a>
They work fine: i click on them, the URL bar extends to domain.com/#sectionname and fullpage scrolls down to that section as intended.

Now i have a footer link (to open cookie settings) and the API there requires me to open that modal with settings with:
<a href="#showcookielayer">, triggering some internal event to show the modal.

This works on a page without fullpage.js initialized, but it fails when fullpage.js is active. Instead, the #showcookielayer is added to the URL and as there is no section with that name, no scrolling occures.

So question is: is there a way to exclude a hashtag link from triggering a fullpage.js scrolling attempt?

I want / need the anchor functionality else, so turning it off is no option. It's just that one link that should not be handled by fullpage.js but leave to the browser and handle it by the other script instead.

Sure!

You can temporally disable hashes on fullPage.js by using the method fullpage_api.setLockAnchors(false);

Then turn it on when closing the modal.
