I am using a very small jQuery plugin, jquery.visible.js (https://github.com/customd/jquery-visible) to detect if an element is partially visible within the current viewport. Although, I have fixed navigation on the top of the page that causes issues when an element is underneath the navigation. Instead, if an element is under the navigation, I need the plugin to return false instead of true.

How can I add an offset to the plugin of approximately 50px to accommodate for the navigation?

Working snippet is below. To reproduce the problem, use the 'Detect Visibility' button to view what is on screen and what is not. Scroll down so that an element is underneath the navigation, and press the 'Detect Visibility' button again.

$(function() {
  // Add the spans to the container element.
  $('#container dt').each(function() {
    $(this).append('<span></span>');
  });

  // Trigger the 
  $('#detect').on('click', function() {
    // Loop over each container, and check if it's visible.
    $('#container dt').each(function() {

      // Is this element visible onscreen?
      var visible = $(this).visible(true);

      // Set the visible status into the span.
      $(this).find('span').text(visible ? 'Onscreen' : 'Offscreen').toggleClass('visible', visible);
    });
  });
});

See if this works for you. Instead of modifying the existing $.visible plugin, I added a little plugin that will tell you if an element is "shielded" by another element being rendered in front of it. It returns true if all four corners are shielded, and false if any corner is unshielded.

You could modify the $.visible plugin if you want, but if the original author updates it, you've got to merge your changes with his.

Here's the plugin:

/*
A plugin to detect if any corner of an element is unshielded by another element
being rendered on top of it.

Returns false if at least one corner is unshielded.
Returns true if all four corners have another (non-child) element rendered on top.
*/
(function($) {
  $.fn.shielded = function() {
    var $t = this.length > 1 ? this.eq(0) : this;
    var t = $t.get(0);

    var rect = t.getBoundingClientRect();

    var topRight    = document.elementFromPoint(rect.right, rect.top);
    var topLeft     = document.elementFromPoint(rect.left,  rect.top);
    var bottomRight = document.elementFromPoint(rect.right, rect.bottom-1);
    var bottomLeft  = document.elementFromPoint(rect.left,  rect.bottom-1);


    if( ($t.is( topRight ) || $.contains(t, topRight)) ||
        ($t.is( topLeft ) || $.contains(t, topLeft)) ||
        ($t.is( bottomRight ) || $.contains(t, bottomRight)) ||
        ($t.is( bottomLeft ) || $.contains(t, bottomLeft))  ){
      return(false);
    }else{
      return(true);
    }
  }
})(jQuery);

And here's the working snippet you posted, modified to use the plugin:

$(function() {
  // Add the spans to the container element.
  $('#container dt').each(function() {
    $(this).append('<span></span>');
  });

  // Trigger the 
  $('#detect').on('click', function() {
    // Loop over each container, and check if it's visible.
    $('#container dt').each(function() {

      // Is this element visible onscreen?
      var visible = $(this).visible(true) && !$(this).shielded();

      // Set the visible status into the span.
      $(this).find('span').text(visible ? 'Onscreen' : 'Offscreen').toggleClass('visible', visible);
    });
  });
});

/*

being rendered on top of it.

Returns false if at least one corner is unshielded.
Returns true if all four corners have another (non-child) element rendered on top.
*/
(function($) {
  $.fn.shielded = function() {
    var $t = this.length > 1 ? this.eq(0) : this;
    var t = $t.get(0);
    
    var rect = t.getBoundingClientRect();
    
    var topRight    = document.elementFromPoint(rect.right, rect.top);
    var topLeft     = document.elementFromPoint(rect.left,  rect.top);
    var bottomRight = document.elementFromPoint(rect.right, rect.bottom-1);
    var bottomLeft  = document.elementFromPoint(rect.left,  rect.bottom-1);
    
    
    if( ($t.is( topRight ) || $.contains(t, topRight)) ||
        ($t.is( topLeft ) || $.contains(t, topLeft)) ||
        ($t.is( bottomRight ) || $.contains(t, bottomRight)) ||
        ($t.is( bottomLeft ) || $.contains(t, bottomLeft))  ){
      return(false);
    }else{
      return(true);
    }
  }
})(jQuery);

  <p>Basic element visibility checking. This example will print 'Onscreen' or 'Offscreen' depending on the location of the element at the time the detection was run.</p>
  <code class="prettyprint lang-javascript">// Is this element visible onscreen?
var visible = $(this).visible( detectPartial );

// Set the visible status into the span.
$(this).find('span').text( visible ? 'Onscreen' : 'Offscreen' ).toggleClass('visible',visible);
   </code>
