Creating a button that you don't need to click on…..

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hi,

    I want to learn if there is a pluggin or HTML to allow me to insert a button into my website that can be activated through scrolling rather than clicking.

    What I am referring to can be seen in this website: https://www.mikiyakobayashi.com/

    I really like this feature and would be very appreciative if someone could help me in my quest!

    Thankyou, Amelia Brooke

  • Hi there,

    This isn’t HTML – HTML cannot do something like that.

    The link you see at the bottom of the page is just a regular link, and has nothing to do with the scrolling behaviour. The scrolling behaviour is managed by a completely different process that uses JavaScript code to look for a mouse scroll input, and then sends a command to the browser to load a different page based on that.

    Something like that would have to be built into a site’s theme. If that site you link to was using WordPress, I might have been able to tell you what theme they’re using, but they’re not using WordPress, and this is likely something they had custom-made for their site.

    There are tens of thousands of WordPress themes out there, and I don’t know of anything with a feature like this built in. I don’t even know what it would be called, to help you with the proper search term to look for something similar – it’s not a standard website feature that has an established term used to refer to it.

    So I’m afraid we’re not able to help you in this case.

    One suggestion I can make is to contact the folks at Upwork – one of their freelance developers might be able to help you build a custom theme or plugin to add this type of functionality to your site.
