ignore scroll behavior docs?

[kellyrmilligan]

I need to scroll the page to top when the query param changes. I can just do it in component will receive props or something like that , but I found an issue where this was specficially changed to not scroll when the query param changes vs teh route param. it mentions ignore scroll config, but I can't find this anywhere in the docs. is there an example somewhere? what is the suggested way to scroll to the top when the query string params change?

I think you'll need to do that in componentWillReceiveProps in this case.

Currently the way it works is like this:

• When only query changes doesn't do anything—that's entirely on you
• When params or route changes, router respects whatever scrollBehavior is set in config (by default, ImitateBrowserBehavior)
• There is an exception to second rule: if any of the shared ancestors of previous and next route have ignoreScrollBehavior option, router does nothing. If only params changed but route is same, ignoreScrollBehavior is checked on that route.

Cool that works for me. Isnignorescrollbehavior and option on a route then? I couldn't find it in the docs at all

Yup, it's an option on Route. You're right it's not in the docs (but should be!) @rpflorence

Thank you for raising this!
It's here now:

Currently the router doesn't manage scroll positions any more. Try https://github.com/taion/react-router-scroll if you stumble upon this issue while finding a solution for your scroll problem.
