Bootstrap Carousel Jumps to top of page when advancing

Question

When I advance the slider manually, the slider jumps to the top of the page. How can I prevent this from happening? Help much appreciated! Here\'s the code:

Answer 1

It turns out there was a smooth page jump script for another page that was causing this issue. It works after I moved out the the following from custom.js:

  function filterPath(string) {
    return string
    .replace(/^\//,'')
    .replace(/(index|default).[a-zA-Z]{3,4}$/,'')
    .replace(/\/$/,'');
  }
  var locationPath = filterPath(location.pathname);
  var scrollElem = scrollableElement('html', 'body');

  $('a[href*=#]').each(function() {
    var thisPath = filterPath(this.pathname) || locationPath;
    if (  locationPath == thisPath
      && (location.hostname == this.hostname || !this.hostname)
      && this.hash.replace(/#/,'') ) {
      var $target = $(this.hash), target = this.hash;
    if (target) {
      var targetOffset = $target.offset().top;
      $(this).click(function(event) {
        event.preventDefault();
        $(scrollElem).animate({scrollTop: targetOffset}, 400, function() {
          location.hash = target;
        });
      });
    }
  }
});

  // use the first element that is "scrollable"
  function scrollableElement(els) {
    for (var i = 0, argLength = arguments.length; i  0) {
        return el;
      } else {
        $scrollElement.scrollTop(1);
        var isScrollable = $scrollElement.scrollTop()> 0;
        $scrollElement.scrollTop(0);
        if (isScrollable) {
          return el;
        }
      }
    }
    return [];
          }
