Hide Divi Fixed Header on a Particular Section

Written by Dan Mossop

Divi allows the default header to be made into a "fixed" header that remains visible as you scroll down the page. If you'd like to temporarily hide the Divi header as you scroll past a particular section, here's how to do it.

Fixed header shown while scrolling…

… but hidden on a specific section

Hide Divi header when scrolling past a specific section using jQuery

To hide the fixed header when scrolling down a specific section, we can use a bit of JavaScript / jQuery.

First, add a class named "hide-header-section" to the section where you want the header to disappear, at:

Section Settings > Advanced > CSS ID & Classes > CSS Class

Then add this jQuery script to your site:

<script>
jQuery(document).ready(function($){
   
    var section = $('.hide-header-section'); // replace with your section ID or class
    var header = $('#main-header');
   
    $(window).scroll(function() {
        var scroll = $(window).scrollTop();
        var offset = section.offset().top;
        var height = section.height();
   
        if (scroll > offset && scroll < offset + height) {
            header.addClass('hide-header');
        } else {
            header.removeClass('hide-header');
        }
    });
});
</script>

This script will listen for the scroll event and check if the user's scroll position is within the section. If it is, it will add the 'hide-header' class to the header; if it isn't, it removes the class.

Next, add this CSS to your site to hide the header when the 'hide-header' class is added:

#main-header.hide-header {
    display: none !important;
}

Now you should see the header normally as you're scrolling down, but when you scroll past this particular section, the header will temporarily be hidden.
