How Do I Add a Scrolling Animation in Wix?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 1:33 am

Adding a scrolling animation to your Wix website is a great way to add some visual interest and personality to your site. There are a few different ways to add a scroll animation, but we’ll focus on two of the most popular methods: using the Wix Editor’s built-in scroll animation tool, and adding a scroll animation using HTML code.

Scroll animations can be used to animate any element on your page, including text, images, and buttons. In most cases, you’ll want to add a scroll animation to an element that’s set to scroll with the page, like a header or footer. That way, when someone scrolls down your page, the element will animate into view.

GREAT NEWS:

Exciting update! We've collaborated with Wix to offer WBI users with a free plan for all website creation needs - Explore the details here.

To add a scroll animation using the Wix Editor:

1. Select the element that you want to animate. 2. Click the “Animations” tab in the left sidebar. 3. Click the “Add Animation” button. 4. Select “Scroll” from the list of animations. 5. Choose how you want the element to animate into view. You can choose from “Fade In”, “Slide In”, or “Bounce In”.

6. Set when you want the animation to start. You can choose from “On Scroll”, “On Hover”, or “On Click”. 7. Set how long you want the animation to last. This is optional, but it can help create a more seamless animation. 8. Click “Preview” to see how your scroll animation will look before you publish your site. 9. When you’re happy with your animation, click “Publish” to make it live on your site!

Adding a Scroll Animation Using HTML Code

If you’re comfortable working with HTML code, you can also add a scroll animation using code.

The first thing you’ll need to do is find the code for your element. You can do this by right-clicking on the element and selecting “Inspect”. This will open up your browser’s developer tools and show you the HTML code for that element.

Once you have the code for your element, you’ll need to add a few lines of code to create the scroll animation.

Here’s an example of what that code might look like:

PRO TIP: Please be aware that the website builder Wix does not currently support scrolling animations. If you attempt to add a scrolling animation to your Wix site, it is likely that it will not work as intended.

<div class="element">

<!-- Add your scroll animation here -->

</div>

In this example, we’ve added a <div> tag with a class of “element”. This is where we’ll add our scroll animation code.

Next, we’ve added a comment indicating where we’ll add our scroll animation code.

Finally, we’ve closed our <div> tag.

Now that we have our basic HTML structure in place, we can start adding our scroll animation code.

.element {

    /* Add your CSS properties here */

.element {


}
