Sticky Contact Lite adds minimal floating Call and WhatsApp buttons to your WordPress site.\n- Lightweight (no DB tables, no external dependencies)\n- Auto-injection site-wide or via [sticcoli_contact]<\/code> shortcode\n- Backward-compatible [sticky_contact]<\/code> shortcode alias\n- Mobile-only toggle\n- Manual left\/right positioning, suitable for RTL and LTR layouts\n- Inline SVG icons with no external assets\n- i18n-ready (Text Domain: sticky-contact-lite)<\/p>\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Upload the plugin files to \/wp-content\/plugins\/sticky-contact-lite\/<\/code>, or install the ZIP via Plugins \u2192 Add New \u2192 Upload Plugin.<\/li>\n
  2. Activate the plugin through the Plugins screen in WordPress.<\/li>\n
  3. Go to Settings \u2192 Sticky Contact<\/strong> and enter your phone\/WhatsApp.<\/li>\n
  4. (Optional) Use shortcode [sticcoli_contact]<\/code> where needed.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n
    \n

    Buttons don\u2019t show up<\/h3><\/dt>\n
      \n
    • Ensure you filled phone or WhatsApp in settings and clicked Save<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
    • If \u201cMobile only\u201d is enabled, test on mobile or disable it.<\/li>\n
    • Ensure your theme calls wp_footer()<\/code>.<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/dd>\n

      How to set WhatsApp link?<\/h3><\/dt>\n
        \n
      • Enter only international digits without a leading local zero (e.g., 98912xxxxxxx<\/code>) or a full https:\/\/wa.me\/98912xxxxxxx<\/code> \/ https:\/\/api.whatsapp.com\/send?phone=98912xxxxxxx<\/code> link.<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/dd>\n

        Does the old shortcode still work?<\/h3><\/dt>\n
          \n
        • Yes. [sticky_contact]<\/code> is kept as a backward-compatible alias, but [sticcoli_contact]<\/code> is recommended for new content.<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/dd>\n

          Can I use the shortcode while auto-inject is enabled?<\/h3><\/dt>\n
            \n
          • Yes. If the shortcode is detected in the main post content, the plugin avoids auto-injecting a duplicate set of buttons on that page.<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\n

            1.0.3<\/h4>\n\n
              \n
            • Harden WhatsApp URL validation by allowing only wa.me<\/code>, www.wa.me<\/code>, and api.whatsapp.com\/send?phone=<\/code> formats.<\/li>\n
            • Normalize phone numbers to digits plus one optional leading +<\/code>.<\/li>\n
            • Add backward-compatible [sticky_contact]<\/code> shortcode alias.<\/li>\n
            • Add migration from the legacy sticky_contact_options<\/code> option key.<\/li>\n
            • Prevent duplicate output when shortcode and auto-inject overlap; shortcode output takes priority.<\/li>\n
            • Enqueue the tiny frontend stylesheet whenever buttons are configured for reliable shortcode rendering in widgets, blocks, and page builders.<\/li>\n
            • Show admin settings errors when invalid phone\/WhatsApp values are rejected.<\/li>\n
            • Improve settings registration with explicit type, default, and sanitize callback.<\/li>\n
            • Replace text glyphs with inline SVG icons.<\/li>\n
            • Improve keyboard focus styling, safe-area spacing, and reduce front-end z-index.<\/li>\n
            • Improve admin field UX with LTR direction, mobile input modes, max length, and translatable placeholders.<\/li>\n
            • Remove the Screenshots section from readme.txt.<\/li>\n
            • Remove duplicate readme tag.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n

              1.0.2<\/h4>\n\n
                \n
              • Replace inline CSS with proper wp_enqueue_style<\/code> + wp_add_inline_style<\/code>.<\/li>\n
              • Use unique, prefixed option key sticcoli_options<\/code> and section IDs.<\/li>\n
              • Change shortcode to [sticcoli_contact]<\/code> for uniqueness.<\/li>\n
              • Add frontend CSS file under assets\/css\/frontend.css<\/code>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n

                1.0.1<\/h4>\n\n
                  \n
                • Align ownership metadata and headers\/readme.<\/li>\n
                • Remove discouraged load_plugin_textdomain() call; rely on WP core auto-loading (since 4.6).<\/li>\n
                • Minor sanitization of inputs.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n

                  1.0.0<\/h4>\n\n
                    \n
                  • Initial release.<\/li>\n<\/ul>","raw_excerpt":"Ultra-lightweight floating Call & WhatsApp buttons for WordPress.
