Floating Admin Button

Description

This plugin replaces the admin bar (at the top of the frontend screen) by a sticky ‘Go To Admin Screen’ button

It’s a, lightweight, jQuery based plugin.
The best part: you can drag and drop the button to anywhere you want!
The new position will be used till the session ends.
After starting a new session it will use the default position again.

Also cool is: you can toggle between the WP Admin Bar and the Floating Admin Button!
Just press the custom hotkey (configurable on the Settings page).
NOTE: DEFAULT HOTKEY IS CTRL-F8

Second use of the plugin:
Disable the button on the settings page. In this mode you can toggle the WP-Admin bar on and off by pressing a, self-defined, hotkey.

You can configure the plugin via:
WP Admin Panel » Settings » Floating Admin Button
