Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Fixed Menu Anchor

Because the algorithm looks for the # sign in the URL. Unfortunately accordions and other menu-like structures using # to reference a target. That is getting in the way of the plugin. But in version 2 we introduced a new feature, which allows you to set a CSS class and the plugin will ignore all links using that CSS class.
Yes, you set a CSS class which indicates, that the plugin is prohibit from being activated by a click event.
Yes, with version 2 (only PRO-version), we introduced a feature, that lets you set a certain screen width and a value for the distance, which only applies until that width is reached. After the width is higher, the default value will be used. 4. I got weird behavior after clicking an anchor (e.g. moving to the bottom and jumps back immediately)! We got feedback from users that they experienced weird behavior when clicking an anchor. In almost all cases another plugin or a custom Java Script of the theme is interfering with the Fixed Menu Anchor plugin. The reason is, that it kinda capturing the click event to apply a certain behavior for anchor-links. If you have the same problem, please deactivate other plugins first and see if the problem goes away. If it persists, create a post in the support forum, together with a detailed description of your setup (e.g. installed plugins, active theme). We will look into it and getting back to you.
