Scrolling not working when page is assigned home page status

    I have had an error on our WP page that required a manual reinstall of WP. Now, scrolling does no longer work on JUST the front page. The infuriating thing is that I know I have been here before – two years ago – and don’t recall how I fixed is.

    I am now using Twenty Twenty One, but the entire site is made up of Slider Rev elements. I strongly believe that this is not a Slider Rev issue though but am happy to be proven wrong and seek support there.

    So the problem is that a page (made of Slider Revolution elements) works when it is a regular page, but the moment it is elevated to Front Page status, it won’t scroll any longer.

    Here is the site:
    https://www.stillwords.com

    and here is exactly the same page when it does not have Front Page status:
    https://stillwords.com/testpage/

    I have, of course, ploughed through the fora and the internet at large. And yes, I have deactivated all plugins and yes, I have changed the theme. For days on end in fact. Any help, even just a pointer, greatly appreciated.

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Thank you so much for reaching out Yogesh. I tried to add it in the CSS, but that’s clearly not enough. So I probably have to go in at the deep end again and create a child theme. Thanks again!

    I can see … :

    body.home {
    overflow: hidden;
    }

    … when I right click the page and search for that string. But I cannot find the string anywhere in my WP folders. When I add it to custom CSS in Twenty Twenty One, nothing changes

    Where does the home page code source this string? It’s not in style.css.

    Remember that the page works fine, until it is assigned Front Page status in WP, so maybe that should hint at where the command to stop scrolling is drawn from?
