Loving this but Would love the option to disable the X
This plugin looks amazing and works flawlessly. I would love an option to remove the X that allows user to close the bar.

Simple and does the job
Works as advertized. Would be great to have a cross to hide the bar, to add CSS to customize the font, the button shape, the text and button colors separately, and the bar height. Pretty cool already !
