Regression in scroll behavior of AJAX views with exposed filters

[bberndt-uaz]

Problem/Motivation

When a user interacts with an exposed filter for a view that uses AJAX, the page now scrolls to the top of the view element. A regression was introduced with this Drupal core change for 10.6.x and 11.x:

• Modernize Drupal.ajaxCommands.scrollTop()

There is an open Drupal core issue for this:

• Views with exposed filter and ajax causes unexpected scroll position change

This regression affects AJAX views in both Quickstart 3.3.x and the pull request to upgrade Quickstart 2.x to Drupal 10.6.x.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Go to /calendar (or any view with an exposed filter that uses AJAX)
2. Click on one of the filters
3. Observe that the page scrolls to the top of the view element

Proposed resolution

Use a patch for Drupal core to revert to the previous behavior.

Expected behavior

Using filters should not automatically scroll the page unless specifically intended for that view.
