How do you want it to sticky? Do you mean fixing this element on a fixed position?

Try changing this line:

position: sticky !important;

to:

position: fixed;

And adjust the top property to suit, probably about forty pixels.

Thank you so much, BeyondSpace – this code worked perfectly for me (with my own .fe-block, of course)! For those using the amazing (and indispensable) Squarespace ID Finder extension for Chrome, you can just copy your desired block's ID, delete the #, and add .fe- to the beginning everything remaining to target your .fe-block.

I was running into this issue in a single usage of my sticky code for a reason that I haven't quite been able to decipher (I have two other seemingly identical sections on the same page – left aligned headers sticking to scroll alongside their respective accordions  – that are working without the need for the height to be defined). A caveat for future readers that I needed to substantially increase the number after height for my site – to 280px(!) – so don't be afraid to really fiddle with that number to get your desired result 🙂.
