ScalingHawk Smooth Scroll (Powered by Lenis)<\/strong> replaces the default browser scrolling with a smooth, fluid, inertia-based scrolling experience powered by the Lenis<\/a> scrolling engine.<\/p>\n\n

This plugin enables smooth scrolling in WordPress using the Lenis JavaScript library. This plugin is not affiliated with or endorsed by the Lenis project.<\/p>\n\n

Key Features<\/h4>\n\n
    \n

  • Smooth Anchor Links<\/strong> \u2014 Automatically smooths all anchor navigation (#links)<\/li>\n
  • Fixed Header Support<\/strong> \u2014 Auto-detects sticky\/fixed headers and offsets scroll targets<\/li>\n
  • GSAP ScrollTrigger Compatibility<\/strong> \u2014 Syncs with GSAP animations automatically<\/li>\n
  • Scroll-to-Top Support<\/strong> \u2014 Universal detection of scroll-to-top buttons across themes<\/li>\n

    Universal Theme Compatibility<\/h4>\n\n

    Works with all WordPress themes including:<\/p>\n\n

      \n
    • Kadence<\/li>\n
    • Astra<\/li>\n
    • GeneratePress<\/li>\n
    • Flavor<\/li>\n
    • Flavor starter<\/li>\n
    • OceanWP<\/li>\n
    • Elementor-based themes<\/li>\n
    • Gutenberg block themes<\/li>\n
    • Custom themes<\/li>\n
    • Page builders (Elementor, WPBakery, Beaver Builder, Bricks)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n

      Performance<\/h4>\n\n
        \n
      • No jQuery dependency<\/li>\n
      • Single requestAnimationFrame loop<\/li>\n
      • Lightweight architecture (~12KB total)<\/li>\n
      • Defers to GSAP ticker when available (no double RAF)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n
          \n
        1. Upload the scalinghawk-smooth-scroll<\/code> folder to the \/wp-content\/plugins\/<\/code> directory.<\/li>\n
        2. Activate the plugin through the Plugins<\/strong> menu in WordPress.<\/li>\n
        3. Go to Settings \u2192 Smooth Scroll<\/strong> to configure options.<\/li>\n
        4. That's it \u2014 smooth scrolling is now active.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n
          \n

          Does this plugin work with my theme?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

          Yes. The plugin is designed to be completely theme-independent. It works with all standard WordPress themes and page builders.<\/p><\/dd>\n

          Will this conflict with GSAP animations?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

          No. When GSAP and ScrollTrigger are detected on the page, the plugin automatically syncs the scroll position with ScrollTrigger and uses GSAP's ticker instead of its own animation loop.<\/p><\/dd>\n

          Can I disable smooth scrolling on mobile?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

          Yes. Go to Settings \u2192 Smooth Scroll \u2192 Mobile & Touch<\/strong> and check \"Disable on Mobile\".<\/p><\/dd>\n

          My anchor links scroll behind the fixed header. How do I fix this?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

          Go to Settings \u2192 Smooth Scroll \u2192 Navigation & Anchors<\/strong> and either:\n- Set a manual \"Fixed Header Offset\" value in pixels, or\n- Enable \"Auto-Detect Header Height\" to let the plugin detect your header automatically.<\/p><\/dd>\n

          What happens if another smooth scroll plugin is active?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

          The plugin includes conflict detection. It will log a warning in the browser console and override conflicting CSS scroll-behavior: smooth<\/code> rules.<\/p><\/dd>\n

          Can I use Lenis's `data-lenis-prevent` attribute?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

          Yes. Add data-lenis-prevent<\/code> to any element where you want to disable smooth scrolling (e.g., custom scrollable containers).<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\n
