Chip: perhaps a future version will provide options to select what point to scroll to.

Another “feature” I’ve thought about adding is selectable scroll speed, and animation types. For example, on my personal blog, I’ve modified it so that there’s a sort of springy “bounce” effect when it scrolls down.

Hmmmm …. does not seem to be working for me. I deactivated the Lightview Plus plugin thinking there might be some sort of conflict there but it did not seem to work.

Oooh, I see – the page scrolls to the “Write Post” text. Nifty.

Though, I would still recommend scrolling either to the top of QuickTags, or perhaps to the top of the Post Title TEXTAREA. (Though, the Post Title is entered once, and then the field isn’t used again during editing of the post – so I think QuickTags is still the best scroll point for maximum scrolling efficiency.)

In any case, nice plugin! It will certainly be useful.

How useful!

One question: does the plugin scroll to the top of the post-edit TEXTAREA, or to the top of the QuickTags? I use the QuickTags frequently (for inserting links, etc.) – as, I would assume, many do; so setting the page scroll to the top of the QuickTags would be awesome.

[...] will need to scroll down before arriving at the textare where you do all the writing. No more! With Dougal Campbell’s WriteScroll plugin, whenever you open such pages, the plugin will auto-scroll the page for you so that the posting [...]
