This question is a related question to How to cite page number in-text
Basically, I want the page number appears to be blue color too (is it called cross-referencing)
My MWE:

one single link for all of the citation and not several chunked linksthat(author name, year, page)unable to links to referencing as hyperlink?colorlinksoptions ofhyperrefand get back to boxed links, the link will probably consist of several boxes (next to each other or maybe partly inside each other) and not of a single box. It can also be tricky to make sure the punctuation is part of the link. Linking the parentheses is tricky, but it is already difficult to link the separator between citation label and the postnote/page number.
