I’ve implemented a smooth-scrolling snippet from GeneratePress as documented here: https://docs.generatepress.com/article/generate_smooth_scroll_elements/

The exact snippet code I use is this:

add_filter( 'generate_smooth_scroll_elements', function( $elements ) {
  $elements[] = 'a[href*="#"]:not(.wp-show-posts-read-more)';
  
  return $elements;
} );

This works for everything on my main site (blog) but does not seem to work for my bbpress forum. I’ve reached out to GeneratePress and got this response:

Hmm I’m not sure why that’s not working unfortunately.

You will need to check with bbPress’ support to see if there is anything from their plugin that’s blocking the code from being executed.

Do you have any ideas on how to solve this? Many thanks in advance!

first thing I would do is break this into separate functions

add_filter( 'generate_smooth_scroll_elements', 'th_scroll' ) ;

function th_scroll ( $elements ) {
  $elements[] = 'a[href*="#"]:not(.wp-show-posts-read-more)';
  return $elements;
}

Hi Robin, thanks for the suggestion! It executes smooth scroll exactly as before on the non-bbpress pages, but unfortunately still doesn’t work on bbPress pages.

Any ideas?
