Description

The UCF Header Bar plugin allows the simple inclusion of the UCF Header bar into your UCF WordPress website using enqueue_script. The UCF University Header is a cohesive marketing and branding tool for the entire university. It provides consistent navigational elements and a universal search feature with search suggestions.

The University Header has a responsive option and will adapt to various screen sizes as necessary.

Installation is quick and easy with only one setting.

  1. Upload the plugin files to the /wp-content/plugins/ucf-header-bar directory, or install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly.
  2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ screen in WordPress
  3. Use the Settings->UCF Header Bar screen to configure the plugin to match your website’s width.

Where will the UCF Header Bar be added?

The UCF Header Bar should be visible at the top of your website right after the opening <body> tag.

Are there any settings?

On the settings page, select the width that best matches your website’s width. Options include Narrow <= 940px, Wide <= 1140px, and Full Width.

Why isn’t the UCF Header Bar acting responsively?

To utilize a responsive bar, simple make sure your sites <head> includes the following <meta> tag:

<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">

Are there any known issues with themes?

There are some themes that have sticky headers that can conflict with the UCF Header Bar implementation. If your theme has a sticky header, please test its functionality after activating the UCF Header Bar plugin.
