Jumping anchorlink

[EstherH1975]

Dear …,

I made a website sense2sense.nl and the client (and I) notice the following:

When you click on an menu-item from the “s2s-vervolgpaginas”, the motion to the anchorlink is not smooth at all. It jaggers.
(for example from page https://www.sense2sense.nl/hoe-ik-werk/#caroline-verdonk link via menu to https://www.sense2sense.nl/#werkgeluk)

When using the home-pages menu ‘sens2sense’ there is nog problem.
(for example) Link: #werkgeluk

We tried many options (looked at it with serveral developpers) to get rid of the jump, but think it is something in the template.

We hope this can be solved and are curious which tips you can give us.
Thanks in advance and with kind regards,

Esther Huigen

Hi @EstherH1975,

Thanks for reaching out.

I couldn’t check the site since it’s behind an under construction page. Though that seems normal, the two are different, the relative URL (#werkgeluk) and the absolute URL (example.com/#werkgeluk). The relative URL doesn’t need to load the page, it will just scroll since it’s the same page. While the absolute URL will reload the entire page first, then scroll. It will then move as the page loads (the height of the page depending on the loaded content like styling and images), hence, jumping isn’t completely preventable.

Thanks!
