Sticky Header 2020

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory rank vs rivals

wp.org popularity rank over time · higher is better · when a rival's line climbs above yours, they've overtaken you

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 68% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Refined from the date this plugin crossed into its current band.

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

   One click installation and best of all works with Elementor. I did not need to use shortcodes or add any codes.

   This plug is great however I believe its missing one thing which all other sticky header plugins have and that is the ability to change the background color on scroll. Maybe thats an addition for a future update. Other than that, great work! This topic was modified 5 years, 8 months ago by mitchearly.

   Thanks for your great work! This is a great plugin, easy to use and simple to config. I am really supprised to get an effective “sticky header”. And it works with 2020 theme without any problem.

   THANK YOU! I chose the 2020 theme because I thought it would be easier to manipulate, as it is from WordPress itself. Boy, was I wrong! I don’t really understand how or why, but a lot of otherwise “universal” plugins don’t work with 2020. I was almost at my wits’ end when I found this plugin, and I was so thankful I did! I don’t know how popular the 2020 theme is going to be, but I bet there will be a market for plugins written specifically for this theme. I’m going to see if I can live with the pink link text (which, no, I can’t change). If I can’t, I’ll be glad to pay for the premium upgrade. Thanks again!
