Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Sticky Header Menu on Scroll

Yes, in almost all cases. The plugin uses a prioritised list of selectors and HTML structures that covers the vast majority of WordPress themes, including classic themes, popular page builder themes, and full-site editing (block) themes built with the WordPress Site Editor.
Switch the detection mode to Custom Selector and enter the CSS selector for your exact header element. You can find the correct selector by inspecting the header in your browser's developer tools.
No. When the plugin is disabled from the settings page, no CSS or JavaScript is loaded on the front end at all.
Yes. Enable the CSS State Classes option and use .mshms-is-sticky in your custom CSS to target the header in its sticky state. You can apply any CSS property: different background, reduced padding, smaller logo via a child selector, and so on.
Yes. Enable the Custom Background option and choose a color. That color is applied only when the header becomes sticky, so the header can remain transparent at the top of the page and switch to a solid (or semi-transparent) background once the user scrolls. Use the Background Opacity and Backdrop Blur sliders for a frosted-glass effect.
Enable Custom Background, set the background color to white (or your site's primary color), reduce Background Opacity to around 80–90%, and set Backdrop Blur to 8–12 px. That produces a translucent, blurred header with no custom CSS required. Browser support for backdrop-filter is excellent in all modern browsers.
Enable Hide on Scroll Down and Show on Scroll Up, then set the Scroll-Up Distance Threshold to a value like 80–120 px. The header will only reappear after the user has scrolled upward by that many pixels, eliminating flicker caused by small accidental upward movements.
Yes. Enable Shrink on Scroll in the Appearance card and use the Sticky Padding slider to set the desired padding when the header is sticky. The transition is smooth and animated. If you need to change font size or logo size in addition to padding, enable CSS State Classes and write a rule targeting .mshms-is-sticky.
