  • Very impressed from the first use of This plugin

    This plugin has a nice UI. It is so feature rich to build any header. But one issue I experience is that live editing is so Slow as compared to Elementor. e.g when I change the Padding values, the effect on element being edited, is somewhat lagging. effects loads after a few milliseconds.

  • Great header builder!

    This header builder is great but it could use some more style elements like: HTML block, WP widgets

  • glitchy, beta product

    As impressed as I am with the vision of this plugin, it is glitchy. I find myself wasting a lot of time trying to get the results I want, and support is slow if existent at all.

  • Very nice!

    I agree with the other reviewer that documentation lacks but once you get it working this a very nice plugin to have! I do wish the PRO version wasnt priced so high so I could use on all my client sites. Add some more features to the free version and this plugin will be used on every site! Keep up the great work!

  • Stax header builder

    I just recently installed the Stax Header plugin to try to customize my header. There were absoutely no directions anywhere and no tutorials found on youtube. Normally, I can figure these things out - but not with this plugin. I tried creating a "zone" and tried mousing over the header to tell the plugin where it is at - but nothing. I do not think that the plugin developer could have made it any more difficult to use. Nothing worked - a complete waste of my valuable time!
