Why use the ‘disable auto-scroll’ feature?

Our quiz maker has publishing options that let you seamlessly embed quizzes, personality tests, and other content on any CMS around.

But very occasionally, you might find certain quirks – due to your site’s set up.

Our quizzes have a great auto-scroll default feature, which works great for most implementations.

After each question, your user is taken to the top of the quiz for the next.

But sometimes, you might notice a behaviour where the viewer is not redirected automatically to the top of the quiz unit after each question.

For example:

A bit of back story about why we added our disable auto-scroll feature…

Our quiz embeds are very flexible – and work flawlessly in almost every site.

You can see them here being used by the BBC, Red Bull, and CNN.

However, there are thousands of themes, plug-ins, and CMS tools – and each has their own quirks.

It’s well-nigh impossible to avoid any issues.

It depends on how you embed your Riddle content – but with certain sites, you’ll see this auto-scroll issue with very long Riddle content.

Your website’s top navigation bar might demonstrate some odd behaviours – especially if it’s ‘sticky’ and always present.

In this case, you also might want to try our custom off-set option – you can choose to always display your quiz X pixels below your top nav bar.

The good news? It’s an easy fix – no coding required.

To fix the auto-scroll, we recommend turning the ‘disable auto-scrolling’ feature on in the ‘Publish’ step.

Re-embed again: you’ll also need to copy/paste the fresh embed code into your page/post.
If you’re a little code-savvy, you can just change value of our auto-scroll functionality from “true” to “false”.
