How to Scroll to the Top on Filter Change in Shopware?
When users apply filters in Shopware, the page doesn’t automatically scroll to the top. This can lead to confusion, as users might not realise that the filtered results have changed. This article provides a simple JavaScript solution to enhance the user experience by ensuring the page scrolls to the top when filters are applied.
Problem: No Auto Scroll on Filter Change
Shopware does not automatically scroll to the top when a filter is applied. This can make it difficult for users to see the updated product listings, especially on long category pages.
Solution: JavaScript Scroll Fix
The following script detects changes in the filter panel and automatically scrolls the page to the top whenever a filter is applied.
Implementation Steps:
- Locate the sidebar element that contains the filters.
- Use a MutationObserver to monitor changes in the sidebar.
- Scroll to the top when a filter change is detected.
