Perfect little plugin for fixed headers
In like fixed headers, but as they tend to be too big on small screens I often do not activate them. This little plugin is the perfect companion for fixed headers in block themes. All it does it make them shrink a bit as you scroll. Just give it a go. You'll like it.

Practical helper for FSE themes
I like using fixed headers. This plugin offers me everything I need: Automatic shrinking when scrolling down Adjustment of spacing for jump marks Adjustment of animation. And everything is solidly programmed. Thank you!

Great! Works fine as soon as you activate it
Nice to find a quick and simple way to make a site's sticky header and logo shrink a bit when you start scrolling down the page, for block themes. Got used to doing it easily with page builders, couldn't find a no-code way to do it in FSE. Hopefully this functionality will one day be a WP core option. Worked fine in the Twenty Twenty-Five theme as soon as I activated it, and there are controls to fine-tune the sizing if you want to.
