Get maximum control over your sticky header. Set your menu, submenus, secondary menu, search, your colors, backgrounds or transparency, your logo and much more!

Live preview of your settings changes in plugin’s page in admin area. After you change menu position, link colors, backgrounds, you can see it immediately how will it look on your website.

Settings

Awesome Sticky Header by DevCanyon has long list of settings you can use to make your sticky header look the way you want.

General

These are general settings for your sticky header.

• Sticky scroll position – when will your sticky header show, after how many pixels scrolled down
• Header width – inner content (container) width, so your header stretches 100% of the browser window width, but logo and menus match your website’s content
• Full width stretch – whether or not your header stretches 100% of the browser window width
• Header position – your header can also be placed left/right if your theme hasn’t content middle oriented, just like Twenty Fourteen theme
• Show description – show/hide site description (tagline)
• Sticky animation – slide sticky header from top or appear without sliding animation
• Hover transition – transition effect for link hover colors or backgrounds

In Appearance -> Menus if your menu item has description, it will be whown in sticky header too.

Header

Detailed settings for main navigation, sub-menus, logo, tagline, etc.

• Choose menu – if you have created at least one menu under Appearance -> Menus, you can choose which menu will go to sticky header
• Menu depth – three levels of navigation for sub-menu
• Logo image upload – upload image to be used as your logo
• Choose your logo type – logo can also be text link; if it’s image, you can set max. width for it
• Menu padding (top/bottom) – decide how big is your sticky header by putting padding on top/bottom for main menu items
• Logo padding (top/bottom) – same as above but top/bottom extra space for logo/description
• Menu position – you can have menu centered; this way logo is centered too, above menu
• Menu items padding (left/right) – left/right distance of menu items – don’t put them too close! 😉
