Can someone help with a Wordpress Plugin question?

Hi Guys

I have recently setup a Wordpress blog with a pretty cool peel away ad plugin at the top right corner.

This is the plugin ...

You can see it at my site here ...

As you can see, it works great. But there's a modification I would like to make. I want it to stick to the background so it scrolls off the top of the page when the user scrolls down.

So, here is my question: can anyone tell me what file I need to edit and what the edit needs to be? I realise it is probably just changing an attribute from 'absolute' to 'relative' or something similar, but I can't find which file to edit.

Cheers,

Will

  • It may be in the CSS, see if a poition:fixed property is attached to the CSS controlling placement of that object. "fixed" keeps certain elements stuck in one place:

    An element with fixed position is positioned relative to the browser window.
    It will not move even if the window is scrolled:

    just dump the fixed for static, or relative. static is the default when no property is assigned.

    I'm guessing that may be what your asking
    Example

    p.pos_fixed
    {
    position:fixed;
    top:30px;
    right:5px;
    }

  • You're going to have to edit the actual plugin file. Keep in mind that this will probably break the next time you update the plugin, so keep a note somewhere as to what you did.

    On line 349 of jquery-page-peel.php, change 'fixed' to 'static'.

    That's all there is to it. The peel will now scroll with the page.

  • Thank you Steve. You are spot-on - it works great.

    As I'm new to Wordpress, I had not realised there was a facility to edit the plugin php. I had been looking through all the other the CSS and the php pages and, obviously could not find the code.

    Many thanks

    Will
