Problem with scrollto offset javascript because of header
I need help with this scrollto code snippet. The problem is that I need to set an offset to account for my menu. Without the offset the header that I scroll to gets buried underneath the menu. See for yourselves here:https://julyfx.mystagingwebsite.com/stanford-mba-msx-essay-topic-analysis-examples/
Would anyone happen to have a suggestion?
Thank you! Leah

Should be relatively easy: If your header is for example 85px high, you can just add these 85px to the offset in your code, so this line
scrollTop: target.offset().top
becomes
scrollTop: target.offset().top - 85
that way the window will scroll 85px less than calculated, so the section will not be hidden behind the header.

Just a suggestion have you tried something like:
window.scrollTo({top: (jQuery('#2').position().top-jQuery('header').height()), behavior: 'smooth' })
?
Where #2 would be taken from your this.hash target above?
Hi Kummer, Thanks for your suggestion. Unfortunately I'm completely unsophisticated when it comes to all this. I thought the solution might have something to do with adding a numeric offset around the target.offset() or something. But I'm not sure.

Oct 27 '18 at 23:55
I understand. And yes, adding a numerical offset will do the trick. By getting jQuery('header').height() you could get such a number to offset your target.offset().top with. It would even account for the header changing height when on say a mobile device.
