Sticky, Popup, Floating, Navigation Widget Guidance
Posted: Mon May 02, 2022 12:18 pm
I'm current, having just purchased WB17. Not a designer and I use WB for my personal genealogy website which continues to grow in size.
Now I am adding a single page (so far at least) story that is ridiculously long. Bookmarks will work well for navigation of the page BUT, what I really want to do is use a small image, like a paperclip or some other image of my choice, and have it float on the screen, like left middle or lower left, or some other constant location, as the user scrolls down the page.
When they click the image a popup with a list/menu of the bookmarks would appear so that they can navigate to that spot on the page quickly. The popup would automatically disappear when they either mouse out OR simply click to get where they are going. I don't want it to cover the full page, just a box is fine.
robmarsh3 recently posted a link to his site https://www.capitolsquash.co.uk where, at the lower left, there is a clickable popup for his cookie management. This is the effect I'm trying to achieve with, same page, bookmarks but I'd want the image to float as the user scrolls.
What I'm hoping for is someone to give me an idea of the best way to achieve this, IF it is even possible.
As an aside, WB keeps getting better all the time and the support of this forum group is remarkable. Thanks to Pablo and everyone else for the continued support.
