How to place the bar at the bottom of the (sticky) menu? Can you add this feature?

Just curious, I been working on PHP version 7.4 for awhile with no issues with a website that even runs forum software. This last update triggered a PHP version error stating, I need to upgrade my PHP version.

Pros and Cons of not doing this now?

thnx

Any simple way to move status bar under sticky menu?

Can you make the JS file to not get loaded in places it isn’t needed? Only needed on the plugin settings page.

Hi there,

really great plugin, but what use is a display of the progress if it means that the menu items can no longer be clicked?

Or can I set up that?

Best regards,
Chris

Heloo,

when I’m going through this page directly, the indicator is not working properly. Further, when I am refreshing this page then it is working fine. Please help me in how to resolve it
For your reference, I have used this indicator in 3 other websites as well. On those websites also I am facing the same problem.

Hey we have installed the plugin with great hope. unfortunately, it is now showing the progress bars on posts. Can you help in any manner?

Hey – thanks for the plugin.

I installed and set it up but the progression is off from my page.Could it be reading my site incorrectly?

Hi Marcin,

I like a lot your simple plugin, but I’m getting something buggy on several pages of my website. I suspect (but I’m not sure), it’s because the plugin calculates the page height while some images aren’t loaded yet. So I guess (if it’s the case) the plugin should update its data only when the page is ready.

At least this happens on Safari. On Chrome I had the problem on first load, not on the following ones.

#1 Great work!
#2 Let me show you how Reading Position Indicator can indicate only text area progress, no full page progress. In this way when you finish reading post, the indicator will show 100%, ignoring comments, Shareaholic stuff an so.

First, we have to insert an invisible marker into posts right after the text area. For this add those lines in file: reading-position-indicator/reading-position-indicator.php

function iworks_insert_end_reading_position($content) {
    return $content . "<div id=\"end_reading_position\"></div>";
}
add_filter( 'the_content', 'iworks_insert_end_reading_position', 1 );

Then, change just one line in file: reading-position-indicator/scripts/iworks_position.js

var getMax = function(){
            //return $(document).height() - $(window).height();
	    return $("#end_reading_position").offset().top - $(window).height(); //JUNIOR
        }

HAVE FUN! ??

Hi,

love your plugin, but am wondering if there’s a way to hide it on pages and only show it on posts?
Thanks!

I suppose this is more of a feature request, but this code also helped solve an issue for me.

The theme I am using has responsive design, and when I was looking at my site on a small device, the bar was calculating incorrectly (by not being completely full even when at the very end of the document). I was also looking to exclude my comments section from being calculated in the document length, and this is what I came up with that solves both of those issues, by using the post class instead of using the entire document in the getMax(); function:

reading-position-indicator/scripts/iworks_position.js, lines 15-17:

	var getMax = function(){
		return $(".post").height() - $(window).height();
	}

I suppose there is probably a way to make it include the comments as well, by selecting the right <div>? (maybe .single-wrapper?) It might come down to personal preference, but perhaps you could add those as options.

Thanks for this amazing plugin! The rest of it works fantastically.

Cheers!
