Ah that sucks, I wonder why it's not working for you. I just re-tested on my website to make sure Squarespace didn't update something that broke my solution and it is still working. Make sure you use page sections and that you don't have any other css code related to page scrolling that might be interfering with the code above.

Hi Christian - I found a way to make smooth scrolling work on my 7.1 website. It's still in construction and can't share but here' s how I achived it. This works in all browsers including mobile. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 1. Insert this code in the HEADER CODE INJECTION <script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-2.1.3.min.js"></script> <script src="https://unpkg.com/smoothscroll-polyfill/dist/smoothscroll.min.js"></script> <script src="https://unpkg.com/smoothscroll-anchor-polyfill"></script> 2. Insert this code in CUSTOM CSS html { --scroll-behavior: smooth; scroll-behavior: smooth; } 3. Create your anchor links. You will need to get the PAGE SECTION ID for the section you would want to anchor to. It looks like this: #page-section-5e2799dfc3035b3cf9e9c4d6 I have a hard time finding those IDs so what I do is right-click and inspect the section I want to anchor to and I do a search in the console and type: ID. Then you should be able to easily find all the page IDs. Once you have your page ID, you can create text links or buttons, whatever links you want and just put the # sign before the ID so it looks like this: #page-section-5e2799dfc3035b3cf9e9c4d6 That's it - smooth scrolling in all browsers and mobile. Note that in Chrome it will smooth scroll to a CODE BLOCK when using regular CODE block DIV IDs but it won't work in SAFARI / iPHONEs Mobile. Only the #page-sectionIDs work in all browsers.

Update #2 Ok I got it working. This is how you add Smooth scrolling anchor links in Squarespace 7.1 This works in all browsers including mobile. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 1. Insert this code in the HEADER CODE INJECTION <script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-2.1.3.min.js"></script> <script src="https://unpkg.com/smoothscroll-polyfill/dist/smoothscroll.min.js"></script> <script src="https://unpkg.com/smoothscroll-anchor-polyfill"></script> 2. Insert this code in CUSTOM CSS html { --scroll-behavior: smooth; scroll-behavior: smooth; } 3. Create your anchor links. You will need to get the PAGE SECTION ID for the section you would want to anchor to. It looks like this: #page-section-5e2799dfc3035b3cf9e9c4d6 I have a hard time finding those IDs so what I do is right-click and inspect the section I want to anchor to and I do a search in the console and type: ID.

That doesn't work in 7.1 yet. What will happen with this code / solution is when you click the link it will load the section but it won't scroll down to it.

Update - just chatted with support and the agent said that anchor links are not supported in 7.1 It's strange, such a basic functionality. If anyone know of a workaround please share, thx very much

I installed an anchor link on my homepage in Squarespace 7.1 and when i click the link it jumps to the section instead of scrolling down to it. I'm using a CODE block with a DIV ID in the section I want to scroll to. see code below: <div id="pp"></div> and for the text link I put: /homepage/#pp It doesn't scroll, it just loads the section that has the Code Block with ID. Any help is appreciated. Thx

I'm having this issue with my video homage banner. It takes 4 seconds on first load with a black screen. Colin, do you have an example of the plugin working on a website? The plugin website mentions this "...It uses built-in Squarespace code to load videos, so the functionality may vary with Squarespace changes." Wondering if you have any example to share before taking a chance and throwing away $35 if it's not going to work. Also looking at pre-loading pages but so far no luck. If anyone has recommendations on pre-loader plugins etc would be great. I'm using the Bedford template.
