Reason for needing the Code Snippet
The client wanted to display a list of past events in a scrollable column. This was easy to implement using simple css. The page layout was done with Beaver Builder, but the solution should work for any html container.
What the Code Snippet does
This css allows the content in one column in a row scroll if it is longer than the height of the column.
Here's the result:
Here's the Code Snippet
overflow-x:scroll;
Make a column, in this case using Beaver Builder and give it an ID to target a CSS selector (in this example it's highlights-scroll). Then add the following CSS to add scroll bars so the content will scroll in the x direction (up and down):
.highlights-scroll .fl-col-content {
max-height:64vh; overflow-x: scroll;
padding-right: 30px;
}
Limit search for phrases by using " " around the phrase
