How to Enable a Sticky Header in Elementor
A sticky header ensures that your website’s navigation remains visible as users scroll down the page. If you’re using Elementor, you can easily enable this feature without coding. Here’s a step-by-step guide:
Step 1: Open Your Header in Elementor
- Go to WordPress Dashboard > Templates > Theme Builder
- Click on Header and select the one you want to edit
Step 2: Enable Sticky Option
- Select the header section
- In the left panel, go to the Advanced tab
- Under Motion Effects, find Sticky and choose Top
- Select devices where the sticky effect should apply (Desktop, Tablet, or Mobile)
Step 3: Add Effects (Optional)
- Enable Shrink Effect to make the header smaller when scrolling
- Use Z-Index (set it to 999) to keep the header above other elements
- Add a background color to enhance visibility
Step 4: Save & Test
- Click Update and preview your page
- Scroll down to see if the header remains fixed
Now, your Elementor header stays visible while scrolling, improving user navigation and accessibility!
