Description

This plugin will add two widget areas on top of the main header. The purpose of adding these widget areas is to easily add navigations and notices on the top.

This plugin is built to work only for the Storefront theme.

How to use:

  • Like any other widget areas, you can easily add widgets by navigating to Widgets page under appearance on your WordPress dashboard.
  • You can also add and modify widgets while on the Customizer page.
  • You can easily customize the background, text, and link colors in the Customizer. You can find the settings under Top Bar section.

Notes:

  • The Top Bar widget areas works similar to Storefront’s footer widgets areas. When only the first widget area has widgets, it’s width will be at 100% and the second widget area will not show up.
  • We’ve added styling support for custom menu widgets. It’s look and feel is similar to the main menu and its sub-menu styles.
  • This plugin doesn’t support the sticky header option added by the Storefront Designer extension.

FAQ

Will this plugin work for themes other than Storefront?

Unfortunately, No. This plugin was designed to work for the Storefront theme, utilizing Storefront’s action hooks and filters. Activating the plugin while using a different theme will trigger a warning.

I’ve activated the plugin, where can I access the settings?

The settings for this plugin can be found in the Customize page under Appearance. In that page, find the section named “Top Bar”.

How are custom menu widgets shown?

We’ve added styling for the custom menu widgets. It’s look and feel is similar to the main menu and its sub-menu styles.

Will this work on mobile or is it responsive?

The widget areas are designed to be responsive. We’ve also added an option in the customizer to hide the Top Bar entirely when viewing it on mobile.

Storefront loads incredibly fast, so I wanted to use it. But a very difficult theme to customize. I spent a whole day trying to find the hooks and template files to disable the Page Title. All to no avail. Thank you so much for creating this plugin!! I have some custom work and will reach out to you.

Great plugin

Nice plugin to add custom banner messages in the top bar. Use one widget set to center alignment for a single message centered on your pages.

Awesome Plugin

Love this plugin!

Should be in default “Storefront”

Works as promised and should be part of the “Storefront” theme by default. I like that you can turn this top bar off on mobile displays. Some more options for convenience would be nice like settings for margins, paddings, widths, borders …

Supernice!
