Give PrestaShop shoppers a smooth back-to-top button on long pages
The PrestaShop back to top button makes long store pages easier to browse by giving shoppers a quick way back to the header, menu, filters, search or cart area. It solves a small but common usability problem on long category pages, rich product descriptions and CMS guides, and is especially welcome on mobile.
The button stays hidden until the shopper scrolls past your configured threshold, then uses the browser's native smooth scrolling to glide back to the top. You choose lower-left or lower-right placement, a circle or square style and the exact scroll distance that reveals it, and it ships with an accessible label for people using assistive technology.
It is deliberately lightweight: a single fixed button with an inline SVG arrow and inline CSS and JavaScript, no external widget and no customer data sent anywhere. Sensible defaults (enabled, appears after 300 pixels, circle style, right side) mean it works the moment you install it, and it registers three footer hooks so the button renders once in any theme without ever showing twice.
- Pixel trigger distance. The button stays hidden until the shopper passes the configured pixel value, with 300 pixels as the default.
- Left or right placement. Merchants can choose whether the fixed button appears at the lower-left or lower-right side of the screen.
- Circle or square style. The configuration offers two button shapes while keeping the control compact and predictable on long pages.
- Smooth return action. Clicking the button smoothly returns the shopper to the top of the page.
- No duplicate button. The module avoids showing the same button twice when a theme offers more than one suitable footer area.
- Accessible label included. The template outputs title and aria-label text for the Back to top control.
PrestaShop Back to Top Button
Back to Top Button adds a small scroll-to-top control to long PrestaShop pages so shoppers can return to the header, menu, filters or search area without dragging the page back manually. Long category pages, rich product descriptions and CMS guides can make browsing feel tiring, especially on mobile, and that friction can quietly push visitors away before they reach the next product or the cart. The module solves that narrow problem with a lightweight fixed button that appears only after the configured scroll distance and uses native smooth scrolling to bring the visitor back to the top.
Keep long pages easier to browse
When a shopper reaches the bottom of a long page, the next useful action is often at the top: navigation, filters, account links, search or the cart. If getting back there feels annoying, the store loses momentum and the visitor may simply leave instead of continuing to compare products. A visible one-tap control keeps browsing fluid, which matters on stores with deep categories, detailed descriptions and mobile traffic.
Reduce small usability frustrations
Small navigation issues rarely look dramatic, but they add up across every session. A visitor who has to swipe repeatedly just to return to the menu spends less attention on buying and more attention on fighting the interface. The button gives them a predictable shortcut, helping the store feel tidier and more professional without changing the theme layout.
Match the control to your storefront
A generic widget can stand out in the wrong way and make a professional store look patched together. This module lets you choose the button shape, position and scroll threshold, so the control can sit where it helps without covering important theme elements. That matters for reputation because shoppers notice when a store feels considered, consistent and easy to use.
Smooth scroll control with position and threshold options
The module is deliberately narrow: no tracking, no external widget and no customer data sent anywhere. It outputs a simple arrow button, avoids duplicate display when a theme offers more than one suitable footer area, and uses the browser's built-in smooth scrolling instead of a heavy add-on. Setup is done from Back Office with no coding, and the lightweight storefront output is suitable for desktop and mobile layouts without interfering with checkout.

Works Well With Back to Top Button
Modules our team genuinely pairs with this one — and exactly why each belongs in the same setup.
Workflow
If you have added the free Back to Top Button, you are clearly thinking about how shoppers move through long pages, and on a big catalogue the longest pages of all are usually category listings packed with products. The button helps people climb back to the header, menu, search or cart after scrolling, which is a sensible fix for a real navigation pain on mobile and rich CMS guides.
Filter Revolution works alongside it from the other direction. Rather than helping shoppers get back up a long list, it gives them the tools to make the list shorter in the first place: faceted filters with checkbox, radio, dropdown, slider and colour controls, clean filter URLs and optional SEO landing pages for selected product combinations. It is a separate, paid tool aimed squarely at large catalogues, a natural step up once the free button has shown you where browsing friction lives.
Run together, the pair covers both sides of long-list browsing. Filter Revolution helps customers narrow a crowded category down to what they actually want, while the back-to-top button keeps the navigation comfortable when a list is still long, so shoppers spend less time scrolling and more time reaching products that fit.
Complement
Adding the free Back to Top Button signals that you care about how a long page feels to browse, especially on mobile category pages, detailed product descriptions and CMS guides where shoppers do a lot of scrolling. It quietly improves usability by returning visitors to the header, menu or cart without them hunting for the top of the page.
Scroll Animations works alongside it on the same long pages, but on the way down rather than the way up. It adds lightweight reveal motion to product tiles, category blocks and other selected storefront elements using a configurable CSS selector list, so a page feels more polished as content comes into view, all without editing theme templates or loading a heavy animation library.
Used as a pair, these two small tools make long pages more pleasant in both directions. The animations add a sense of polish as shoppers scroll through products, and the back-to-top button gives them an easy way back when they have seen enough, together making a deep catalogue or content page feel less tiring to explore.
Complement
The free Back to Top Button is most useful precisely on the kind of large catalogue where visitors open several products, scroll a long way and need an easy route back up the page. If your store fits that pattern, you are already dealing with shoppers who browse deeply and move around a lot before deciding.
Recently Viewed Products helps that same browsing behaviour from a different angle. It adds a compact product-history block that remembers items in the shopper's browser for 30 days, with no login required, so people who opened and compared several products can return to familiar options without searching again. It is a separate, low-friction module that complements the navigation help the button already provides.
Together they reduce the small frustrations of comparison shopping in a big catalogue. The button keeps moving up and down a long page easy, while the recently viewed block gives shoppers a reliable shortcut back to products they looked at earlier, so interest is less likely to be lost between page visits.
