Visitors on my small brochure-style WordPress site suddenly can’t move down any page with their mouse wheel — the view just freezes at the top. Touch-scroll on mobile still works, so I’m confident the issue sits in desktop-related JavaScript or CSS. Elementor is my prime suspect, but I haven’t updated any plugins lately and I haven’t deactivated Elementor for testing yet. I need someone familiar with WordPress internals, Elementor, and common plugin conflicts to jump in, reproduce the problem, trace the exact cause, and restore normal scrolling without disturbing the existing layout or content. Deliverables • Pinpoint the root cause (whether it’s Elementor itself, an add-on, theme code, or another script). • Apply and verify a clean fix so mouse scrolling works across major browsers. • Provide a brief summary of what you changed so I can keep the site stable going forward. If you can sort this quickly, let’s get started right away.

Hello, I can jump in and fix your desktop scroll lock issue quickly without changing your layout. I’ll reproduce it, then trace the exact script/CSS that’s trapping the page at the top (common culprits are overflow: hidden on html/body, a stuck Elementor popup/overlay, smooth-scroll scripts, or an add-on that hijacks wheel events). Once identified, I’ll apply the cleanest fix (plugin conflict patch, CSS override, or JS adjustment), verify in Chrome/Safari/Firefox, and leave you a short note of what caused it and what I changed. Let’s discuss the project in a chat, I have some queries regarding your project. Best, Webozza

I can quickly reproduce the issue on desktop, trace the exact source (Elementor, theme, or script), and apply a clean fix that restores normal mouse scrolling without affecting layout or responsive behavior. I’ll inspect console logs, Elementor’s DOM wrappers, and theme scripts, then patch the conflict either via custom CSS/JS adjustment or safe theme override. Once fixed, I’ll test across major browsers and provide a concise summary of what was changed so you can prevent recurrence. Available to start immediately — this type of issue is usually resolved within a short session.
