 * Hi,
 * I checked your page and “Page scroll to id” is completely missing. None of its
   scripts are included in the page and seems like it’s not activated.
 * Is the plugin activated? Does your theme have `wp_head()` and `wp_footer()` functions?

 * You need to enable the plugin on your custom links. Go to “Page scroll to id”
   settings and change the “Selector(s)” field value to:
 * `a[href*=#]:not([href=#])`
 * Save changes and test your page.

 * Hey Malihu, I came across this thread and it helped me fix my site! Was just 
   wondering why changing my selector from “a[rel=’m_PageScroll2id’]” to “a[href*
   =#]” allowed smooth scrolling on my page. For background, my page was smooth 
   scrolling only on page load and jumping otherwise. Thanks!

 * [@lnorman](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lnorman/) Changing the selector
   to `a[href*=#]` instructs the plugin to handle any link with a hash (`#`) in 
   its URL.
 * Having the default selector `“a[rel='m_PageScroll2id']` instructs the plugin 
   to handle links created by “Page scroll to id” shortcodes and buttons as well
   as any other link that has a rel attribute value of `m_PageScroll2id`.
 * So, your links were not working because they didn’t have this rel attribute and
   were not created by “Page scroll to id” functions (e.g. shortcode, toolbar buttons
   etc.).
 * I’ve developed the plugin in such way, so it handles (by default) only links 
   created by itself and not all links with a hash. This way the user has full control
   and makes “page scroll to id” impossible to break or conflict with other plugins
   or the theme itself.
