## Description

**AOS Quick Action Bar** is a floating widget system for WordPress that lets you
create one or more trigger buttons on the side or bottom of the screen. Each trigger
button opens a customisable panel containing a grid of action items — links, phone
numbers, forms, or any URL.

Unlike simple link bars or social button plugins, each button group in this plugin
has its own expandable panel with configurable layout, background, grid columns,
and item cards. All settings are reflected in a live admin preview without saving.

#### What makes it different

 * **Expandable panel architecture** — trigger buttons open a configurable grid 
   panel, not just a link list
 * **Live admin preview** — desktop and mobile view update in real time as you change
   settings
 * **Anonymous click tracking** — built-in GDPR-compliant statistics stored entirely
   in your own database
 * **Two layout modes** — floating side widget or full-width horizontal bottom bar
 * **Per-group panel control** — each group has its own background colour, opacity,
   column count, and spacing

#### All features

 * Multiple button groups, each with an independent expandable panel
 * 5 button animations: Pulse Ring, Bounce, Shake, Glow, or None
 * Gradient backgrounds with angle control, per button and per item
 * Notification dot to highlight specific trigger buttons
 * 30+ built-in icons from the Feather set — no icon font loaded
 * Responsive: show or hide below a custom mobile breakpoint
 * Fully accessible: ARIA attributes, keyboard navigation, focus management
 * No jQuery, no external CSS file — minimal frontend footprint
 * 4 ready-made presets to get started quickly

#### Typical use cases

 * **Contact shortcuts**: a trigger button opens a panel with phone, WhatsApp, and
   email — reachable from any scroll depth
 * **Quote and booking links**: keep a “Request a quote” or “Book an appointment”
   action visible on every page
 * **Support widget**: combine WhatsApp chat, support email, and phone hours in 
   one expandable panel
 * **Download or signup CTA**: surface a primary action without relying on the header
 * **Link collection**: any combination of URLs organised in a grid panel

#### How it works

 1. Go to **Settings  Quick Action Bar** in your WordPress dashboard
 2. Load a preset or add button groups from scratch
 3. Configure each trigger button: icon, colours, gradient, size, animation
 4. Set up the expandable panel: layout, background colour, grid columns, items
 5. Enable the plugin and save — the bar appears on your site immediately

#### GDPR / Privacy

The optional click tracking stores only anonymous integer counts (total clicks per
button) in your site’s own database. No personal data — no IP addresses, no cookies,
no browser fingerprints. A ready-to-use privacy policy text template is included
in the admin panel.

## Installation

 1. Upload the `aos-quick-action-bar` folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`
 2. Activate via **Plugins  Installed Plugins**
 3. Navigate to **Settings  Quick Action Bar** to configure

## FAQ

### Does this plugin slow down my website?

No. The plugin outputs a small inline configuration block and a single lightweight
JavaScript file. No jQuery, no external CSS files, no icon fonts are loaded. Scripts
are only enqueued when at least one group is active.

### Is the click tracking GDPR-compliant?

Yes. The tracking feature counts anonymous totals per button — nothing else. No 
IP addresses, cookies, session identifiers, or fingerprints are stored or transmitted.
A privacy policy text template is included in the admin panel that you can copy 
directly into your privacy policy page.

### Can I show the bar only on specific pages?

The current version shows the bar site-wide. You can restrict visibility with CSS(
e.g. body class targeting) or use your theme’s built-in visibility rules.

### Does it work with any theme?

Yes. The widget is injected into `wp_footer` and uses fixed positioning, so it renders
correctly regardless of theme layout.

### Can I use it as a bottom bar instead of a side widget?

Yes — enable **Bar Mode** in the General settings to render a full-width horizontal
bar at the bottom of the screen instead of the floating side widget.

### Is it compatible with caching plugins?

Yes. The optional AJAX click tracking endpoint is excluded from page caches by most
caching plugins automatically. Static page output contains no dynamic data.

### How do I add my own icons?

The plugin ships with 30+ Feather icons. Additional icon sets are not supported 
in the current version.
