Hi Steve

I just installed the gridder on this page http://www-ecoshowcase-co-uk.compago.staging.wpengine.com/project/manchester-9th-feb/ but every time I click on an item in the grid the page jumps to the top. Any ideas ?

Cheers

Hmmm, yeah, that is not quite working right on your site. My guess is it is conflicting with other javascript on the page. What is supposed to happen is that it is support to scroll the entry that was clicked to the top of the page. So that conflict seems to be making it not possible to accurately determine the top of the page in Gridder.

The only fix I can think of is to disable that scroll effect in Gridder. To do this, delete the gridder.min.js file found in this folder:

../wp-content/plugins/connections-gridder/

Now open the gridder.js file and delete this line:

$( _self._scrollTo() ).animate( { scrollTop: _me.position().top }, 0 );

Save the file. That should disable the auto scroll in Gridder which should stop the jump to the top.

Hope that helps, let me know.

I deleted that line in the plugin and updated the file but it made no difference whatsoever I’m afraid

I’m guessing you may have meant Now open rather than No open? I don’t know how to delete the file ‘gridder.min.js I can see it in the Network Admin, Plugins, Edit I could delete it’c contents and save it but I can’t see any way to delete the field here?

PS, I tried removing the code from that file but it didn’t help

You can not delete files with the plugin Editor. Log into your site with FTP and delete the file that way.

WP Engine has very aggressive caching. Make sure you flush it after deleting the line otherwise WP Engine will continue to serve the original file.

Do I need to do both or was the second instruction overriding the first? Just confused by No open the gridder.js file and delete this line:
$( _self._scrollTo() ).animate( { scrollTop: _me.position().top }, 0 );

@ Steve

The original instructions are what you need to follow. The updated bit is to let you know how to delete the file and to purge the WP Engine cache.

And, yep, that was supposed to be “now” not “no”. I corrected the post.
