To create smooth scroll on link click follow the below steps :
Step 1: Add section ids in menu href including #section1 from admin section Appearance >> Menu .
Step 2: Create section or div with id name section1.
<div id="section1"></div>
Step 3: Paste the below code under your custom js file.
$(document).ready(function(){
// Add smooth scrolling to all links
$("a").on('click', function(event) {
// Make sure this.hash has a value before overriding default behavior
if (this.hash !== "") {
// Prevent default anchor click behavior
event.preventDefault();
// Store hash
var hash = this.hash;
// Using jQuery's animate() method to add smooth page scroll
// The optional number (800) specifies the number of milliseconds it takes to scroll to the specified area
$('html, body').animate({
scrollTop: $(hash).offset().top
}, 800, function(){
// Add hash (#) to URL when done scrolling (default click behavior)
window.location.hash = hash;
});
} // End if
});
});
I hope it will helps you.
