Frequently asked questions
How do I exclude an element from smooth scrolling?
There are two ways: Using data attributes (recommended): Add data-lenis-prevent attribute to any HTML element you want to exclude. For finer control, use: Attribute Description data-lenis-prevent Prevent all smooth scroll events data-lenis-prevent-wheel Prevent wheel events only data-lenis-prevent-touch Prevent touch events only data-lenis-prevent-vertical Prevent vertical scroll events only data-lenis-prevent-horizontal Prevent horizontal scroll events only Using the settings page: Go to Settings > Gredich Smooth Scroll and add the element’s ID or class to the exclusion list.
What is the difference between ID and class selectors?
ID selectors start with # (e.g., #my-element) Class selectors start with . (e.g., .my-class)
Can I use both methods together?
Yes! You can combine data attributes with ID/class exclusions.
How does the plugin handle nested scroll elements?
By default, the plugin automatically detects nested scrollable elements and lets them scroll natively. You can control this behavior from Settings > Gredich Smooth Scroll using the “Allow Nested Scroll” option. Enabled (default): Lenis detects nested scroll containers automatically. Best for most sites. Disabled: Disable only if you experience performance issues and prefer to manually exclude elements using the data attributes or exclusion list above.
