Hello –

Still loving this plugin. One quick question – is there a way to exclude a specific anchor link? I read in another thread to add an exclusion (see below) but the code below didn’t do the trick.

a[href$=’#sampleexercises’]

The anchor link is accessed from a different page and creates a choppy experience where the user is taken to the anchor link, then to the top, then has a smooth scroll down. Would ideally just get rid of the smooth scroll for this one particular link.

Thanks!

  Hello,
  
  Are you using the WordPress plugin? If yes, you probably need to disable the “Enable different pages scrolling on all links” option in plugin settings. Let me know.

Hi Manos

I have used your script successfully on a few occasions thank you!

I think I may have asked this question before – apologies if I have.

Can I set the plugin to smooth scroll automatically to an id (with offset) a few seconds after a page has loaded (without the user having to click on a link)?

Thanks again

  Hi again – I have just found your earlier reply from 2020 – so no need to reply again – unless something has changed in your latest version.
  
  Thanks again 🙂

hello,

is it possible to use this plugin to scroll inside a container?
let me explain, my scrollable div(content-ajax) is inside a div (wrapper), therefore the scroll to id function doesn’t work since it’s the body element that gets animated by the script…

#wrapper { width: 100%; height: 100vh; overflow: scroll; } #content-ajax {}

Is there a workaround?

thanks

  Unfortunately, no. The plugin works strictly on the root element (html/body).

Hi, can anyone please help me fixing the issue. I have a website https://maithrinet.healthyhomefood.com/ with the 5 menus (Home, About, Solutions, Services, Contact Us) on the header. On clicking Solutions, Services and contact Us links, the page scrolls to the particular sections on the Home page and when the page scrolls the header gets stick on the top. The problem is on menu click the complete section is not visible properly as the section hides behind the sticky header partially. How can i make the page scroll to the exact location and not hide any content behind the sticky header. I have used page scroll to id and Sticky Header Effects for Elementor plugins to achive the effects.

  Hello Shwetha,
  
  I just checked your site. You need to utilize the offset option in plugin settings to offset the scrolling according to your sticky header. The best way to do this is to use your sticky header element selector.
  
  Just go to “Page scroll to id” settings and set the “Offset” option value to:
  
  .she-header-yes
  
  Click save changes and test your page links 😉
  
  Let me know if it works.

Hi I thing im stuck a little

Without this class

.navigation-top .current-menu-item > a, .navigation-top .current_page_item > a .mPS2id-highlight {color: #222;
}

All my menu items behave like clicked links and have a color #767676;

When i add
.navigation-top .current-menu-item > a, .navigation-top .current_page_item > a .mPS2id-highlight {color: #222;
}

they have #222; color no matter what.

and my end gol is if the menu is untouch the colour shuld be #222; on mouse click and realase it should be #222; but on hover mouse i would like to hane #767676;.

I do something wrong clearly.

oh

I have no idea how to force slow scroll after clicking home menu buton.
no matter I use custom link or default menu option which is site, back to top on home is instant not floating smooth.

Have a great day. Thank you in advance.

Sorry for my crappy english

  Hi,
  
  You need to exclude the :hover and optionally the .mPS2id-highlight selectors in your CSS. There’s also an error in your second selector as there seems to be a space between a and .mPS2id-highlight. So, change your CSS to:
  
  .navigation-top .current-menu-item > a:not(:hover), .navigation-top .current_page_item > a:not(:hover){ color: #222; }
  
  If you also want to have the #767676 color on the highlighted links while scrolling the page, change the CSS to:
  
  .navigation-top .current-menu-item > a:not(:hover):not(.mPS2id-highlight), .navigation-top .current_page_item > a:not(:hover):not(.mPS2id-highlight){ color: #222; }
  
  For the “Home” link, make it a custom link and set its URL to:
  
  https://sopot-homeyapartment.pl/#top
  
  Let me know if everything it works 🙂

  Hello,
  
  This is a known issue which will be fixed in the next plugin version (1.7.8). If you don’t want to wait, you can download the development version from the link below and use it replacing the current plugin version you have:
  
  https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/page-scroll-to-id.zip
  
  You can keep using the development version and update to version 1.7.8 when it becomes available, as you normally do.
  
  Let me know if you need more help.
