Elementor Change Header on Scroll With Smooth Animation

No extra plug-ins required! Elementor Pro Required.

To begin with, create your new header in a new section

It can be anywhere on the page. If you want the changing header on scroll on every page, then create it in your header template. Header templates are a Elementor Pro feature.

Then, give that section a CSS ID of ' menuhopin ' and a Z-Index of 999

Finally, simply add the code below in an HTML Element

Adjust the transform:translateY value at the bottom of the code to match the approximate height of your header.

<script>

Elementor Close PopUp on Click for Menu & Same Page Links
left html element

If you want your menu to show up only on desktop or mobile, simply use the Responsive settings

responsiveness settings in Elementor

If your menu is an horizontal bar at the top of the page, the above code will work perfectly

For any other placement, modify the CSS. If it needs to appear below something else, change the  top: 0;  value. If it is placed to the left or right of the page, remove width: 100vw;  and add left: 0; .

Et voila! Thanks for reading!

  2. Hey quick question, where does the HTML element go on the page? I tried to implement but the new navbar just stays on the page and there are no effects observed on scrolling.

      1. Michael Chan Hello Michael! You other header should not be set to 'fixed' or 'sticky' anymore. It should just be set to show up normally, at the top of the page!

      2. Hey Michael, can you tell us what you did to fix your issue? I can't seem to get my header to work and I suspect that it's because the html element is not placed in the correct space.

      3. Alexander Green I always put the HTML widget it in the footer so it applies to all pages

    1. Move the CSS part of the code to somewhere where it will load before the header ( for example in the wordpress customizer > additional CSS )

  4. Thanks for this but you need to be a lot clearer.

    For example just say " This effect works by using two sections to create the effect.

    First, create a new section (or use your current one) like you would with any header. Add your menu widget, logo etc. (Note: Don't add any sticky effects, when the page scrolls up this section acts like any section normally does)

    Add a 2nd new section (or duplicate the previous one) and style it. It can be placed anywhere on the page or in your header template. Give it an ID name "menuhopin" with a z-index pf 999. This section is what appears when the page scrolls creating the illusion of swapped headers.

    Using the HTML widget, paste the code below etc.

    But thank you, amazing!

  6. Hello, can i change the code to make it in reverse, i mean when the page open apears my header and when i do scrool the header hide? sorry my english.

  7. Hey Maxime, such an elegant solution. Thank you!

    Quick question:

    I'm using your script to display a sticky header for mobile devices. My "menuhopin" has a nav menu element that brings in a menu panel (sliding-in from left to right).

    Problem is that this menu panel is only visible within the area of the sticky header, those few pixels on the top of the page. I tried playing a bit with the Z-index of the "menuhopin" (888) and my nav menu element (999), but this didn't solve the problem.

    Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

    Thanks!

    1. Hey Christos!

      Really difficult to say without seeing the page. Sounds a bit to me like it might be an overflow problem maybe? Do you have overflow set to default on your sticky header section?

      1. Turns out it was a mistake of mine, a duplicate css snippet somewhere... All good now, many thanks!

  8. Thanks allot for this tutorial.
    The header works as expected on safari. It swaps smoothly and perfect on safari. The slide in animation is smooth a works the same as in desktop.

    Still jumpy on *** Mobile Chrome. I's there any solution for that?
    Thanks

  9. Thanks a lot for this tutorial. The header works as expected as you explained. I'm looking forward to the YouTube tutorial, on how to shrink the logo on scroll. Using ''HTML only...''. Rest condition remains the same.

    Stay Blessed

  10. Greetings - I seem to be encountering an issue on page load. When you first land on my site, the hidden header loads at the same time as the page and then disappears. So it shows real quick before hiding... Can you tell me where this issue would originate from? What do I need to adjust so that hidden header does not show at all until the page is scrolled? Your help is much appreciated.

    1. Greetings!

      Please try the following:

      Instead of adding the code in an HTML element, add it in an Elementor Custom Code snippet (WP > Elementor > Custom Code) that is set to HEAD position.

      Let me know if that solves it!

      1. Fantastic - Yes! That fixed it. Thank you very much. Your the best.

  11. Does this work on Bricks Builder? I have it working on my elementor site and followed the same steps on bricks and it wasnt working... Just wondering if its compatible.

  12. Hi Maxim, first of all, many thanks for your tutorials. It really helped me with my actual project.

    It works perfectly when I scroll down but I'm facing an issue in regards to the header reappearing every time I scroll up, even if I'm not at the top of the page.

    Is there something I can do to make sure the header only reappears when the viewer is at the top of the page? otherwise it reaper at any level of the page at the same time as my sticky header.

    Many thanks in advance!!

  13. Hi,
    first of all: It works perfectly! But I would like the header to come up from the bottom and then stay at the bottom. similar to awwwards.com. How would I have to adapt the CSS code to realise this?

    Greetings and thank you very much for the great tutorial.

  16. Hi Maxime,

    First of all, let me congratulate you on this amazing portal you have here.
    So many cool and really useful customisations for Elementor!

    My question is:
    I have used this on the website I'm working on and it works nicely.
    However, because the trigger is on pixels scrolled, depending on the size that the user has its browser window, the second header is coming in early and I get duplicates (if the window is very deep) or coming in too late.

    Here is the page so you can see : https://www.foliofurno.com/homepage-is/

    Is there a way to change the trigger from pixels scrolled to perhaps when the scroll reaches the top or bottom of an element on the page?

    Cheers!

    1. Hey Martin!

      Change this:

      if (y > 300) { /* change this value here to make it show up at your desired scroll location. */

      to

      if (y > window.innerHeight) { /* change this value here to make it show up at your desired scroll location. */

      That will make it the equivalent of 100vh. To have 110vh, change it like this:

      if (y > window.innerHeight * 1.1) { /* change this value here to make it show up at your desired scroll location. */

      Hope this helps!

      Cheers!

  17. Did everything simply the solid menu simply doesnt show up.

    my steps were, create new header menu, add css id menuhopin, z index 999 .

    next i tried to put the code on the footer, didnt work.

    also tried to have the code on a specific page.

    doesnt show up either way.

    What could be the problem?
    Thanks
    Joao
