Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site. Why active installs don’t tell the whole story →

Overview

About this plugin

php pages (where you edit a post) stick to the top of the screen when you scroll, so all functions of the sidebar stay within reach. It works with the classic version of the editor.

If the total height of the sidebar is larger than the window height, the sidebar sticks to the bottom instead, so the whole sidebar can be made visible through scroll.

On top of this, when you publish or update a page, the plugin will make the page scroll down to the previous scroll position.

This saves users from both having to scroll up (because of the stickiness) and having to scroll down again (using the previous scroll position) every time they update a post!
