With 100,000 active installs and a healthy score of 75, this plugin has a proven audience but trails Elementor-focused alternatives that exceed 200,000 installs.

Update Freshness
25/25

A perfect maintenance score of 100 reflects an update within the last major WordPress release cycle and a long history of consistent upkeep.

User Rating
14/15

A 94 out of 100 from 758 reviewers indicates very strong user satisfaction with minimal complaints.

Support Health
8/15

The support health score of 50 is the weakest area; with only 1 support thread in the dataset, there is simply not enough volume to demonstrate responsive issue handling.

WP Compatibility
15/15

The perfect 100 compatibility score confirms it works with WordPress 7.0 and requires only PHP 5.2, making it usable on nearly any host.

What It Does

Sticky Menu & Sticky Header lets you pin any element on your page to the top (or side) of the viewport as visitors scroll. You simply provide a CSS selector for the element you want to stick, and the plugin handles the scroll behaviour without requiring you to touch theme code.

Who It's For

This plugin is best for site owners with long-form or scrolly content who want persistent navigation, filters, calls-to-action, or widgets always within reach. It suits restaurants, ecommerce stores, course platforms, news sites, and any business where keeping a menu or key UI element visible improves conversions or usability.

Who Should Skip It

If your site uses Elementor and you want polished, animated sticky effects baked into your page builder, this generic selector-based tool is not necessary. Users on extremely old PHP versions or minimal sites with little scrolling content will also gain little from installing it.

The Bottom Line

Sticky Menu & Sticky Header is a reliable, lightweight, and highly rated utility that does one job well: making any element stick on scroll without code. It is an excellent default choice for non-Elementor sites, but the limited support thread data means you should be comfortable troubleshooting minor issues on your own.
