How can I fix the issue with preventing scrolling when a modal is open in Webflow?

To fix the issue with preventing scrolling when a modal is open in Webflow, you can follow these steps:

1. Create a modal: First, create a modal in Webflow using the built-in modal component or by designing a custom modal using div blocks and interactions. Make sure the modal is set to display: none by default.

2. Set the trigger: Add a trigger element such as a button or link that will open the modal when clicked.

3. Add interactions: Create an interaction that will open the modal when the trigger element is clicked. Use the Modal component's "Open" action if you're using the built-in component, or use the "Show" action on the custom modal.

4. Prevent scrolling: To prevent scrolling when the modal is open, you need to make the body (or any other container element) fixed and disable scrolling. Here's how you can do it:

• Add a new custom code embed element to the header of your site by going to the Project settings and then the Custom Code section.

• Insert the following code snippet in the custom code embed element:

  ```html

  ```

• Save the changes and publish your site. Now, when the modal is open, scrolling will be disabled.

1. Close the modal: To close the modal, you can add a close button inside the modal or use any other element (such as a background overlay) to trigger the close action. Create an interaction that hides the modal when the close element is clicked, using the Modal component's "Close" action or the custom modal's "Hide" action.

2. Allow scrolling: To re-enable scrolling when the modal is closed, you need to remove the custom code that was added to prevent scrolling. Go back to the custom code embed element in the Project settings and delete the code snippet you added earlier. Save the changes and publish your site.

By following these steps, you can fix the issue of preventing scrolling when a modal is open in Webflow. Remember to test your modal on different devices and browsers to ensure a smooth user experience.
