How to Fix Elementor Sticky Header and Sections in Animation Addons?

With the Smooth Scroller feature active, you may notice that Elementor sticky sections (like headers or containers) no longer stick. This happens because GSAP Smooth Scroll changes the page’s default scroll behavior, which disables Elementor’s native sticky function.

Why It Happens?

The Smooth Scroller in Animation Addons replaces the browser’s native scrolling with GSAP-powered smooth scrolling.

Since Elementor’s sticky feature depends on the browser’s native scroll position, it can’t detect the movement correctly once Smooth Scroller is enabled.

Recommended Solution — Use Animation Addons Sticky Elements Feature

To make elements like headers, menus, or sections sticky while using Smooth Scroller:

1. Open your page in Elementor.
2. Select the section or container you want to make sticky.
3. In the Animation Addons panel, go to the Advanced tab, enable Sticky Elements, and set your desired values.
4. Configure your sticky settings using the Content and Active Style tabs.
5. Update and preview your page. The sticky effect will now work seamlessly with Smooth Scroller.

Alternative Option — Use Animation Addons Theme Builder

If your sticky header or section is part of your theme:

1. Open the Animation Addons Theme Builder.
2. Copy your existing header layout from Elementor.
3. Rebuild it using the Theme Builder tools.
4. Save and apply it to your site.
   

This approach ensures full compatibility between Smooth Scroller, Sticky Elements, and GSAP animations.
