Normally, clicking hyperlinks to page anchors causes the browser to jump
immediately to the destination anchor. This module uses JQuery to add a smooth
easing animation instead of this sudden jump.
This module is therefore perfect for "one-page" websites.
By using the Smooth Scroll module the effect is applied to all anchor links
on your Backdrop site.
See example at http://css-tricks.com/snippets/jquery/smooth-scrolling/
You can set the speed of the scroll animation at
config/user-interface/smooth-scrolling.
Installation
- Install this module using the official Backdrop CMS instructions at
https://backdropcms.org/guide/modules - The default scroll speed is 500ms. Go to
config/user-interface/smooth-scroll
if you need to change this.
