(Solved) How to get a player to walk on water (Forge 1.20.1)

I'm trying to get the player to walk on water when a certain condition is met. I've tried placing waterlogged blocks under the player's foot if the player is above water, but it's not working. I've also tried to cancel out the player's vy if on water with no luck either. I don't have the procedure for this anymore because I decided to restart the code to try a new method. Is there any simple way to achieve this?
