Overview

About this plugin

Floaty Header is a lightweight and flexible sticky header plugin that helps you fix any element to the top of the page when scrolling — be it your header, navigation, or an announcement bar. Perfect for improving user navigation, increasing visibility of key elements, and maintaining branding on long pages.

⚡ New: Sticky on Scroll Up

With the sticky on scroll up feature, your header or navigation remains hidden while users scroll down and only becomes visible when they scroll up. This keeps your site clean, uncluttered, and content-focused while still providing easy access to navigation. This functionality is fully customizable for desktop and mobile, giving you precise control over when and where the sticky header appears.
