By adding ‘.btn a’ you are telling your script to only execute your function when you click the <a> child within the ‘.btn’ parent.
Editing your HTML
<span class="btn"><a href="#savemyseat" class="link-btn" style="text-decoration: none;">SAVE MY SEAT</a></span>
You can add a new class in your html on your <a> tag to handle this function as well, I used ‘link-btn’ for a naming convention, but feel free to use whatever you want.
Then remember to adjust your function command accordingly
Any idea why the following javascript that makes my mobile navigation work is preventing my anchor scroll buttons to work on mobile? If I remove any navigation and the below javascript that is embeded in a custom HTML module at the bottom of the template, the buttons work in mobile.
Here is an example of a page below. I had to create a mobile button (hide on desktop) and a desktop button (hide on mobile) for each page if I want to use the scroll javascript on desktop. http://www.alignex.com/mechfuse-2017
<script>
/*-------------------------------------------------------------------------------*/
/* MOBILE NAV - TOGGLE SIDE MENU
/*-------------------------------------------------------------------------------*/
$(function() {
// Prepend a mobile icon to the header
$(“.custom-menu-primary”).after(‘<a class=“mobile-icon”><span></span></a>’);
// Prepend a close icon to the menu
$(“.custom-menu-primary .hs-menu-flow-horizontal>ul”).before(‘<a class=“close-icon”><span></span></a>’);
// Add body class on mobile icon click
$(“.mobile-icon, .close-icon”).click(function(){
$(“body”).toggleClass(“show-mobile-nav “);
});
// Dropdown sub menu
$(
“.hs-menu-depth-1.hs-item-has-children”
).not(”.active-branch:nth-child(2)”).click(function() {
$(this).toggleClass(“drop”);
$(this).find(“> ul”).toggle();
});
// Set the menu height to 100% of the document
function setMenuHeight(){
var height = $(document).outerHeight(true);
$(“.custom-menu-primary”).height(height);
}
setMenuHeight();
// Wrap body contents with a div so the transforms will work
$(‘body> div’).find(‘script:not(script[type=“IN/Share”])’).remove().end().wrapAll(‘<div id=“site-wrapper”></div>’);
Hi @leckerman, took me a minute, but I think i have a solution for you.
Alright, so first thing is, I noticed you weren’t using the same button from desktop to mobile. You have two parent divs .hide-on-mobile and .hide-on-desktop. Since you have 2 buttons, only one of them had the class ‘.link-scroll’ on it.
I hopped into your portal and added the class on the mobile version, that’s step 1. Step 2 is, when you go into a mobile screensize, you are adding this css code
@media (max-width: 1024px)
body, html {
height: 100%;
}
For this Javascript to work, you will need to remove the ‘height: 100%;’ property.
Hi @Ty - That does fix the issue, however my navigation on mobile and destktop BOTH disapear when I comment out this code on the css doc…
@media (max-width: 1024px) {
body, html {
height: 100%;
}
I removed the “link-scroll” class on the mobile button, because that was my work-around to try and get the button to at least work as an anchor link. When that class is on the “hide-on-desktop” module (mobile only) the button doesn’t work AT ALL. I am leaving it as is for now, but will need to take it off sometime today if I can’t get the issue fixed.
Hi, I am not looking for scroll but I am trying to figure out why my menu link takes me to the middle of a DIV where the Anchor is rather than taking me to the actual location of the anchor. Any help is appreciated.
Hi there,
I’m looking to do something similar, but I think it requires a little bit of different coding (if it’s possible to do).
I am wanting to create a button within a custom html module that will be a scrolling anchor link to an image contained within a rich text module farther down on the same page.
This should work just the same, in your custom HTML module, you should create your link with a hash, ie:
<a href="#your-id">Link Text</a>
Then in the rich-text module you will want to make sure either the image OR the module is tagged with your id, for example:
<img id="your-id" src="your-img-src" alt="your image alt text" />
Keep in mind that in your “Image ID”, you will not be including the ‘#’, you only use that in your a tag’s href to tell the page to look for the the element with an ID that matches your ‘your-id’.
Hello Ty, thanks for sharing. I’m a newbie at coding. I added this in the Settings > Advanced but it only pasted word per word of the code in the header of the page. How exactly can I add this code to make the smooth scroll effect. Sorry for the stupid question. Hope you can help out.
Been trying to get something like this working on my site with no luck thus far. Have worked through the thread trying the proposed solutions and am sure I’m missing something critical but not obvious to me.
I’m trying to get the ‘FIND OUT MORE - GET IN TOUCH’ link on this page to scroll smoothly to an anchor I defined near the top of the page.
This is saying “On click of element with the id of “top”, perform this function”. But your button is just an <a> with the href of #top.
<p><strong><a href="#top">FIND OUT MORE - GET IN TOUCH NOW</a></strong></p>
To fix this, you can either add a unique class or id to your <a> then call your function with that element’s id or class. So the easiest fix would be changing your text link to this:
<a id="top" href="#top">FIND OUT MORE - GET IN TOUCH NOW</a>
Don’t worry Ty, I managed to make it work using your original method suggested right at the start of the thread. Thanks for your willing help!
Hi Ty
Thanks for your prompt response, really appreciate it. Sadly, however, I’m still not able to achieve what I’m looking for. I made the change you suggested and the result was that the smooth scroll animation happened, but it didn’t scroll to the anchor I had defined - it simply scrolled the button/link to the top of the page.
I’m looking to smoothly scroll back to a specific anchor point on the page on click. Perhaps we can go back to basics and you can just describe the best way to do that to me?
