Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Halcyon Admin — Reduced Motion & Resizable Sidebar

Yes. The block editor's layout offsets follow your saved menu width, so resizing works the same in the editor as in the main admin.

The drag-to-resize handle is desktop-only (mouse / trackpad). On touch devices, the menu uses the default WordPress width. Reduced motion and the color-scheme default work everywhere.

Yes. All preferences are per-user meta, so each user across the network can have their own settings.

Drag the menu edge to a new width — it saves automatically. To restore the WordPress default, open your profile screen, leave the menu-width field empty, and save.

Yes, each feature can be turned off independently: Animations — toggle in your profile under Users → Profile → Halcyon Admin. JS admin bar — check "Use the default server-rendered admin bar" in your profile. Menu width — drag the menu edge back to a different width; it saves automatically and is per user. Color scheme — pick a different scheme through WordPress's standard profile color-scheme picker.

User-meta keys, all local to your WordPress install: halcyon_admin_animations_enabled halcyon_admin_color_scheme_chosen halcyon_admin_sidebar_width halcyon_admin_js_admin_bar_opt_out No data is sent off-site, no cookies are set (beyond a session cookie for the JS admin bar cache-bypass), no external services are contacted. All stored data is removed automatically when the plugin is uninstalled. No data is sent off-site, no cookies are set, no external services are contacted. All stored data is removed automatically when the plugin is uninstalled.

Generally no, but two plugins adjusting the same thing (admin color scheme, sidebar width, or animation state) will produce whichever loads last. Test any existing admin-customization plugins after activating Halcyon Admin.
