Plugin Elementor: How to create a Sticky Header?

Implementing a sticky header in Elementor is relatively simple.

1. set the complete header element via „movement effects“ to sticky „top“ and set the offset value to 10.
2. the logo has to be assigned to the class „logo“ so that it can be reduced in size.
3. the header element gets an „own CSS“ code:

/* Background color turns white when scroll */
.elementor-sticky--effects {
      background-color:rgba(255,255,255,1);
      transition: all 0.5s ease;
}
/* Change color menu on scroll */
.elementor-sticky--effects .elementor-nav-menu a{
      color: #333!important;
      transition: all 0.5s ease;
}
/* Logo size normal */
.logo img {
      width: auto;
      max-height: 120px;
      transition: all 0.5s ease;
}
/* Logo size on scroll */
.elementor-sticky--effects .logo img {
      max-height: 60px;
      width: auto;
}

Optionally, the menu itself can also be adjusted a bit to reduce the complete header height.

Just a Web-Developer

Creating a developer’s own website is always a big challenge. You want to integrate all the cool features and show all your skills. Therefore, it is rather called here to make cutbacks and to put the information in the foreground. I hope this is halfway successful here.
To add value, I’ve taken the „Helpful Code Snippets“ element form my old website and integrated a search function for them.

Tatort Ruhrpott

A few years ago I had the idea for a photo project. I wanted to photograph crime scenes from the Ruhr region and show how these places look today. During the Corona Pandemic 2021, I started taking the photos and at the beginning of 2022, I started implementing the corresponding website.

CMS Geek

CMS Geek was a website project that I started in 2018 and was supposed to introduce users to the functions of WordPress through explanatory videos. In addition to a blog that informed about the latest news about WordPress and Joomla, there were also helpful code solutions to common WordPress, html and CSS problems.

Due to the lack of time to produce more explainer videos, I discontinued this project in spring 2023. I have taken over the code snippets for Just-a-Web-Developer, updated them and will continue to expand them.
