Can anyone suggest some method code or otherwise to make Mantra sidebars stick and stay in place while the rest of page is free to scroll. I have one page of content that extends below the browser bottom border and while the user scrolls down I’d like to keep the sidebar options visible and selectable.
Workaround to my quest…
Found a good plugin – https://wordpress.org/plugins/q2w3-fixed-widget/
Its simple to use. After installing it, under Appearance->Widgets, there are check boxes labelled “Fixed Widget” displayed under each widget so that each widget can be ‘fixed’ or floated separately. On our site rtfzine.org I also installed Display Widgets from https://wordpress.org/plugins/display-widgets/ which allows each page to have it’s own selection from your available widgets -or NO widgets at all displayed. This is probably an overkill workaround to our need to have a special piece of floating text appear on only one page. Using Display Widgets I’ve created a widget which is just plain text which will display a message on just one page. I did this because all the other floating element plugin I found required a unique document element ID and I don’t know how to determine Mantra element IDs. There is probably a custom CSS snippet which could be included in the Mantra Options->Miscellaneous Settings section?
If anyone can tell me now to determine the element ID or tags that Mantra’s PHP dynamically generates On-Load I would be very appreciative.
Cheers,
