How To Make Any Widget Sticky In Blogger


When a visitor scrolls down your blog to view more content, the upper portion of your blog goes out the window from the top to make way for the lower portion that enters from the bottom.

Now what we are going to do is stick your chosen widget to the top edge of the window as it is about to leave, thus making the widget visible at all time while the visitor scrolls. It will float there until its original location comes back when the page is scrolled back up.

This trick is applicable to any widget or element that has an ID, regardless of its location on your blog. It is perfect for navigation bar, subscription box and social media sharing buttons.

As usual Login to your Blogger. Select your Blog, Go to Template >> Edit HTML

Paste the following code above the </body>:
<script>
//<![CDATA[
bs_makeSticky("YOUR_WIDGET_ID"); // enter your widget ID here
function bs_makeSticky(elem) {
var bs_sticky = document.getElementById(elem);
var scrollee = document.createElement("div");
bs_sticky.parentNode.insertBefore(scrollee, bs_sticky);
var width = bs_sticky.offsetWidth;
var iniClass = bs_sticky.className + ' bs_sticky';
window.addEventListener('scroll', bs_sticking, false);
function bs_sticking() {
var rect = scrollee.getBoundingClientRect();
if (rect.top < 0) {
bs_sticky.className = iniClass + ' bs_sticking';
bs_sticky.style.width = width + "px";
} else {
bs_sticky.className = iniClass;
}
}
}
//]]>
</script>
<style>
.bs_sticking {background:#f2f2f2 !important; position:fixed !important; top:0; z-index:9999; box-shadow:0px 10px 4px -5px rgba(0,0,0,0.3); margin-top: 0; position:relative\9 !important;}
</style>
Get the ID of the widget or element you want to make sticky and enter it in line 6 (replacing "YOUR_WIDGET_ID"). For example let's say the widget ID is HTML5, then code line 3 would become:
bs_makeSticky("HTML5");
Save your Template. That’s all, Thank You!
