• Resolved wp-boffin

    Encountered a problem with a fixed header, similar to issue reported by member steponafish — in my case, my sidebar widget was partially hidden by header, on scrolling down the page.

    I tried the “edited” version of this plugin provided by member pschena. The edited version resolves the problem when one scrolls down the page. However, when one scrolls back to top the sticky widget remains offset, i.e., does not return to its original position.

    Fixing this remaining functionality issue would greatly improve the useability of this excellent plugin.

    Will definitely make a donation to this plugin if the implementation of the offset modification can be made robust.

    Thanks for the heads up wp-boffin!

    Unfortunately it’s hard to cater to all combinations of elements that will co-exist on a given page. I’ll consider making it more robust based on these suggestions for the next release 🙂

    Hi wp-boffin, Youdaman,

    I didn’t know about the version edited by pschena, so I made my own version with an offset field. I haven’t tested pschena’s version, but perhaps my version will work for you?

    It also includes a consideration for when the WordPress Admin Bar is visible on the site.

    Download Sticky-Element-with-Offset

    Sample page with fixed primary nav, sticky secondary nav using custom jQuery, and Sticky-Element-with-Offset plugin applied to sidebar.

    Note: when activating this version you should disable existing Sticky Element plugin to avoid an activation error.

    Youdaman, you are welcome to include my modifications if they stand up to testing.
