ਅਕਸਰ ਪੁੱਛੇ ਜਾਂਦੇ ਸਵਾਲ

Why isn’t the “shrink” effect working?

The header cannot shrink smaller than the objects inside of it!

The “shrink” effect is restricted by the size of the content in the header section. Such as logos, images, menus, widgets, and also all of the padding and margins of those elements. This also inclused the padding and margins of the sections and columns themselves.

To get the best “shrink” effect use these settings:
* Set the top and bottom padding to 0px on your sticky header section, column, and elements inside of it.
* Set a custom logo and other image height(you can leave the width blank for “auto”).
* Set the header section height to “min height” and adjust it to your desired height.

Basically what happens is that the content of the header is “too tall” to shrink down anymore.

Do I need Elementor Pro to use this plugin?

No, this plugin works perfectly with Elementor Free, If you are using Free Navigation Widget from The Plus Addons for Elementor. You’ll only need Elementor Pro if you’re using Pro Navigation widgets.

Is this a standalone plugin?

No, it requires Elementor Free or Pro. It extends Elementor’s functionality with new header scroll effects.

Where can I find the Sticky Header Effects settings?

Inside Elementor Editor Select any container Go to Advanced Tab Scroll to Sticky Header Effects section.

Will this plugin work with any WordPress theme?

Yes, it works seamlessly with most Elementor-optimized themes, including Hello, Nexter, Astra, and more.

Will this slow down my website?

Not at all. It’s highly optimized for performance and coded lightweight to ensure fast page loads. It’s lightest sticky header menu option with Google Page Speed optimized for top notch score.

The sticky panel feature is incredibly useful. I added it to a sidebar for important links, and it works flawlessly across all screen sizes. It keeps the user experience smooth and professional. Great plugin!

Ups and downs over time in development, also this tool mentions:IMPORTANT: This plugin does NOT control the sticky position of the header. Please use the above Motion Effects tab sticky options to make the header sticky. but the opposite is true, if you do activate Elementor’s Sticky Menu option your menu will mess up and not return to full width upon window size changes. It took me some time to figure this out. I was about to ditch the plugin. Please devs, remove this mention.

I highly recommend this plugin for creating a sticky header in Elementor. However, it’s challenging to add custom CSS after implementing the sticky header. It would be helpful to have the ability to add a “sticky-active” class to customize the header when it’s sticky. Additionally, having the option to add a box-shadow would be beneficial.

The desktop options seem to work, but trying to integrate on the mobile side is a headache and creates more problems. Even when the sticky option is supposedly only enabled on the desktop, it carries over to my iphone still. If a transparent background is enabled, that works on the desktop, but again on the phone, the sticky header sits like a normal header but without the hero div appearing underneath it (though it works fine in desktop mode or when adjusting the desktop browser to a narrow view). This seems only really reliable on a desktop view but forget about trying to design and then getting it all to work on the mobile side. [Update] I’m going to add a star since I’m still in the middle of troubleshooting what the exact problem is here.
