Redigo Social Chat adds three lightweight floating elements to your site. Put the buttons in the same corner and they stack automatically, so they never overlap.<\/p>\n\n

Chat button:\n* Channels: WhatsApp (with prefilled message), phone, Telegram, email, SMS, Messenger, Viber, Signal and custom URL\n* Bundled icons for every channel, plus Instagram, Facebook and X, or your own icon URL\n* Text button or round icon-only button\n* Colour pickers for button and text<\/p>\n\n

Scroll to top:\n* Show after a configurable scroll distance\n* Square, rounded or circle shape, size from 36px to 64px\n* Chevron, arrow or double chevron icon\n* Optional progress ring that fills as the visitor scrolls\n* Background, icon and ring colours\n* Optional hide on mobile\n* Smooth scrolling that respects the reduced motion preference\n* Replaces a scroll-to-top button added by a supported theme, so only one shows<\/p>\n\n

Reading progress bar:\n* Separate from the scroll-to-top button\n* Top or bottom of the screen, 2px to 12px high\n* Bar colour, track colour and track opacity\n* Optional hide on mobile\n* Can hide a progress bar already added by your theme or a footer snippet\n* Buttons move away from the bar automatically<\/p>\n\n

Layout:\n* Any corner for each button\n* Stack order and gap when both buttons share a corner\n* Separate desktop and mobile edge spacing<\/p>\n\n

Settings page:\n* Tabs for Chat Button, Scroll to Top, Progress Bar and Layout\n* Live preview of everything as you edit<\/p>\n\n

No external requests: all icons and scripts are bundled with the plugin.<\/p>\n\n

    My theme already has a scroll-to-top button. Will I see two?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

    When the plugin's scroll-to-top button is enabled, it removes a supported theme's button. For other themes, turn off the theme's button or disable the plugin's scroll-to-top in the Scroll to Top tab.<\/p><\/dd>\n

    My site already has a reading progress bar. Will I see two?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

    Keep \"Replace Existing Bar\" checked in the Progress Bar tab. It hides bars with the ID read-progress-wrap<\/code>. Developers can add other selectors with the redigo_social_chat_theme_progress_selectors<\/code> filter.<\/p><\/dd>\n

    How do I show only the chat icon without text?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

    Leave the Button Text field empty. The button becomes a round icon.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\n
