Scroll to top of the page after Pagination or Refinement in SharePoint 2013 search results

Hi Friends,

In SharePoint out of the box search results, the paging control will be under the Search results. In this case, whenever there is paging happened the SharePoint will keep the page remained at the bottom though it moved to next set of results. This make users to scroll up the page in order to see the next set of results.


We can overcome this approach using "ScrollToTopOnRedraw” property in Search results webpart. This is a hidden property which will not be visible in Edit webpart properties UI. However this change can be done by modifying the  .webpart file.

"ScrollToTopOnRedraw" is a boolean property which is false by default and all we need to do is, setting this property true.

Please find the below steps

1) Export your current search results webpart to get .webpart file

2) Open it in a text editor or Notepad

3) Find the property “ScrollToTopOnRedraw” and change its value from False to True and Save the file.

4) Import the webpart and add it in your page.

Thats All. The page scrolls to top whenever there is pagination or refinement.

Hope this helps...
