Is there a way to auto-scroll the page in Webflow after a certain amount of time, without the script automatically scrolling back up if the user has already scrolled past the designated point?

Yes, there is a way to auto-scroll the page in Webflow after a certain amount of time without the script automatically scrolling back up if the user has already scrolled past the designated point. You can achieve this using custom code and interactions in Webflow.

Here's a step-by-step guide on how you can implement this:

1. First, go to the "Project Settings" in your Webflow dashboard and click on the "Custom Code" tab.

2. In the "Head Code" section, paste the following script to detect whether the user has scrolled past the designated point:

```javascript

```

Replace `[your designated point]` with the pixel value at which you want the script to consider as the designated point.

3. Next, go to the page where you want the auto-scroll to happen and select the element that you want to trigger the scroll. This could be a button, link, or any other clickable element.

4. In the Webflow Designer, go to the "Interactions" tab for that element and create a new mouse click or mouse tap interaction.

5. In the interaction panel, select the "Start an animation" action and choose the element that you want to scroll (e.g., the page's body or a specific section).

6. Set the type of animation to "Scroll into view" and configure the options as desired.

7. Click on "Initial appearance" to expand the options and check the "Limit to nested elements" checkbox. This ensures that the animation only affects the nested elements and doesn't scroll the entire page. Adjust other settings as per your requirements.

8. Now, when the user clicks or taps the designated element, it triggers the scroll animation within the specified section. However, we need to add an additional condition to prevent it from scrolling back up if the user has scrolled past the designated point.

9. In the interaction panel, select the "Only trigger once" checkbox. By enabling this, the interaction will only happen once, even if the user interacts with the element multiple times.

10. Finally, click "Done" to save the interaction, and you're all set. The page will automatically scroll to the designated point when the user interacts with the triggering element, and if the user has already scrolled past that point, it won't scroll back up.

Remember to publish your changes for the custom code and interaction to take effect on your live site.

With these steps, you can create an auto-scroll behavior in Webflow without worrying about the script scrolling back up if the user has already scrolled past the designated point.
