## Description

**ScalingHawk Smooth Scroll (Powered by Lenis)** replaces the default browser scrolling
with a smooth, fluid, inertia-based scrolling experience powered by the [Lenis](https://lenis.dev/)
scrolling engine.

This plugin enables smooth scrolling in WordPress using the Lenis JavaScript library.
This plugin is not affiliated with or endorsed by the Lenis project.

#### Key Features

 * **Smooth Inertia Scrolling** — Natural, frame-synced scroll animations
 * **Smooth Anchor Links** — Automatically smooths all anchor navigation (#links)
 * **Fixed Header Support** — Auto-detects sticky/fixed headers and offsets scroll
   targets
 * **GSAP ScrollTrigger Compatibility** — Syncs with GSAP animations automatically
 * **Scroll-to-Top Support** — Universal detection of scroll-to-top buttons across
   themes
 * **Conflict Detection** — Warns about existing smooth scroll CSS or libraries
 * **Accessibility** — Focus management after smooth scroll for keyboard/screen 
   reader users
 * **Dynamic Content** — Handles AJAX content, page builders, and lazy-loaded sections
 * **Admin Settings** — Full control over scroll duration, smoothness, header offset,
   and more

#### Universal Theme Compatibility

Works with all WordPress themes including:

 * Kadence
 * Astra
 * GeneratePress
 * Flavor
 * Flavor starter
 * OceanWP
 * Elementor-based themes
 * Gutenberg block themes
 * Custom themes
 * Page builders (Elementor, WPBakery, Beaver Builder, Bricks)

#### Performance

 * No jQuery dependency
 * Single requestAnimationFrame loop
 * Lightweight architecture (~12KB total)
 * Defers to GSAP ticker when available (no double RAF)

## Installation

 1. Upload the `scalinghawk-smooth-scroll` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory.
 2. Activate the plugin through the **Plugins** menu in WordPress.
 3. Go to **Settings  Smooth Scroll** to configure options.
 4. That’s it — smooth scrolling is now active.

## FAQ

### Does this plugin work with my theme?

Yes. The plugin is designed to be completely theme-independent. It works with all
standard WordPress themes and page builders.

### Will this conflict with GSAP animations?

No. When GSAP and ScrollTrigger are detected on the page, the plugin automatically
syncs the scroll position with ScrollTrigger and uses GSAP’s ticker instead of its
own animation loop.

### Can I disable smooth scrolling on mobile?

Yes. Go to **Settings  Smooth Scroll  Mobile & Touch** and check “Disable on Mobile”.

### My anchor links scroll behind the fixed header. How do I fix this?

Go to **Settings  Smooth Scroll  Navigation & Anchors** and either:
 – Set a manual“
Fixed Header Offset” value in pixels, or – Enable “Auto-Detect Header Height” to
let the plugin detect your header automatically.

### What happens if another smooth scroll plugin is active?

The plugin includes conflict detection. It will log a warning in the browser console
and override conflicting CSS `scroll-behavior: smooth` rules.

### Can I use Lenis’s `data-lenis-prevent` attribute?

Yes. Add `data-lenis-prevent` to any element where you want to disable smooth scrolling(
e.g., custom scrollable containers).
