Title: Local Scroll Link Issue Last modified: September 7, 2021 --- # Local Scroll Link Issue * Resolved [Michael](https://wordpress.org/support/users/whispardesign/) * (@whispardesign) * [4 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/local-scroll-link-issue/) * Hello, * I saw a previous post where this was answered but it is a few years old. [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-link-to-specific-tab/](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-link-to-specific-tab/) * I think it needs a bit of tweaking – is scrolls below the tab title. * Thoughts?

Could you post your javascript here? It’s been minified on your site, so I’m struggling to find it. * Thanks, Jon * Thread Starter [Michael](https://wordpress.org/support/users/whispardesign/) * (@whispardesign) * [4 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/local-scroll-link-issue/#post-14851448) * Thanks Jon * Here is the script: * ``` jQuery( document ).ready( function() { jQuery( 'body' ).on( 'click', '.woocommerce-product-details__short-description a[href^="#tab-"]', function() { var href_pieces = jQuery( this ).attr( 'href' ).split( '#tab-' ); var href = '#tab-title-' + href_pieces[1]; jQuery( href ).children( 'a' ).click(); }); }); ``` * [jpowersdev](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jpowersdev/) * (@jpowersdev) * [4 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/local-scroll-link-issue/#post-14855283) * Hi [@whispardesign](https://wordpress.org/support/users/whispardesign/), * So the real problem here is not with the scrolling, but rather the fact that your navbar is fixed. It’s correctly scrolling to the tab, but the tab is hidden behind your navbar. * You can use something like this to control where it scrolls: * ``` jQuery( 'body' ).on( 'click', '.woocommerce-product-details__short-description a[href^="#tab-"]', function(e) { e.preventDefault(); var href_pieces = jQuery( this ).attr( 'href' ).split( '#tab-' ); var href = '#tab-title-' + href_pieces[1]; const tab = jQuery( href ).children( 'a' ) tab.click(); jQuery('html, body').animate({ scrollTop: tab.parent().offset().top - 200 // Change the 200 as needed }, 1500); }); ``` * By manually animating the page you can choose to move 200 fewer pixels down ( as I have in this example), or any other amount. * Let me know if that helps, Jon * Thread Starter [Michael](https://wordpress.org/support/users/whispardesign/) * (@whispardesign) * [4 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/local-scroll-link-issue/#post-14855844) * Hi Jon, * Thanks for this. I thought it might have something to do with the sticky header. I added the code but it’s not working now. Not seeing what caused that all.
