Topic: I cannot get the smooth scroll to work from navbar items
While I have followed the demo example code for smooth scrolling, it does not seem to be working. I am trying to implement it for the navbar items. The page jumps to the desired section, but it does not scroll at all. Note that not even the demo is working: It jumps to the target section in the page but without scrolling.
In custom components You should add directive with value. Here's an example:
<mdb-nav-item href="#first-heading" v-mdb-smooth="'#first-heading'">First heading</mdb-nav-item>

Thank you. It looks as if this solves the error issue. However, it works perfectly well on Firefox and Chrome, but not on Safari.

Thanks for remarks. I added the issue with Safari to our bug fix list. We're going to update the directive as soon as possible. Best regards

Hello Mikołaj Do you have any estimate on when the fix will be released? Thanks

Most likely it will be in the Q4 2020. Best regards
Hi there again,
As I can see the code you shared is different than in our demo. Please check the following code:
<template>
<mdb-container>
<mdb-row>
<ul class="smooth-scroll list-unstyled">
<li>
<h5><a href="#test1" v-mdb-smooth="'#test1'">Click to scroll to section 1</a></h5>
</li>
<li>
<h5><a href="#test2" v-mdb-smooth>Click to scroll to section 2</a></h5>
</li>
</ul>
</mdb-row>
<div style="margin-top: 1000px">
<h3><a id="test1" href="#top" v-mdb-smooth>Section 1</a></h3>
<a href="#top" v-mdb-smooth>Back to top</a>
<hr>

<h4>Example with container</h4>
<a href="#first-heading" v-mdb-smooth>First heading</a>
<a href="#second-heading" v-mdb-smooth>Second heading</a>
<section style="height: 300px; overflow-y: scroll">
<h5 id="first-heading" style="margin-top: 200px">First heading</h5>
<h5 id="second-heading" style="margin-top: 200px; margin-bottom: 400px">Second heading</h5>
</section>
</section>
</mdb-container>
</template>
<script>
import { mdbContainer, mdbRow, mdbIcon, mdbSmooth } from 'mdbvue';
export default {
name: "SmoothScrollPage",
components: {
mdbContainer,
mdbRow,
mdbIcon
},
directives: {
mdbSmooth
}
};
</script>
Here's a working demo, which proves it works correctly. https://vue.mdbootstrap.com/#/directives/pro/smooth

Hello, I just tested the demo of the link. It works perfectly well on Chrome and Firefox, but on Safari. Moreover, this still does not answer my question: why does it not work with a mdb-nav-item element?

The javascript console shows the following error whenever I am using the v-mdb-smooth directive: [Vue warn]: Error in directive mdb-smooth inserted hook: "TypeError: undefined is not an object (evaluating 'n.startsWith')"

Can you share your code snippet so I could reproduce your issue? Best regards, Magdalena

Hello the code is the SmoothScrollPage.vue file from the downloaded demo:
SmoothScroll Docs
import { mdbContainer, mdbRow, mdbIcon, mdbSmooth } from 'mdbvue'; export default { name: "SmoothScrollPage", components: { mdbContainer, mdbRow, mdbIcon }, directives: { mdbSmooth } };Mikołaj Smoleński staff commented 3 years ago
Please try to use camelCase instead of kebab-case id names. Maybe that's why it's not working correctly. Best regards

camelCase does not solve the problem. At the same time, when using v-mdb-smooth in a mdb-nav-item it generates an error, as I can see in the javascript console: [Vue warn]: Error in directive mdb-smooth inserted hook: "TypeError: undefined is not an object (evaluating 'n.startsWith')"
