    stickyNavbar.js

    stickyNavbar.js: Fancy sticky navigation jQuery plugin with smart anchor links highlighting

    Maintainers Wanted

    Because I no longer have time to support and maintain this plugin I am looking for developer who would like to take over this project and add new functionality, solve issues etc. You can contact me through my twitter account: @jozefbutko

    1. Setup

    Include reference to jQuery library, jQuery easing plugin (optional), animate.CSS (optional, not working in < IE9) and stickyNavbar itself at the bottom of the page before the closing body tag:

    <!-- this goes inside the header tag-->
    <link href="//cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/animate.css/3.0.0/animate.min.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
    <!-- all these references goes before the closing body tag-->
    <script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.2.min.js"></script>
    <script src="http://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery-easing/1.3/jquery.easing.min.js"></script>
    <script src="//cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/stickyNavbar.js@1.3.3/jquery.stickyNavbar.min.js"></script>
    

    2. HTML Markup

    Navigation:

    <div id="header" class="header">
         <nav id="nav">
                 <ul class="nav navbar-nav">
                         <li>
                             <a href="#home">Home</a>
                         </li>
                         <li>
                             <a href="#about">About</a>
                         </li>
                         <li>
                             <a href="#services">Services</a>
                         </li>
                         <li>
                             <a href="#contact">Contact</a>
                         </li>
                 </ul>
         </nav>
    </div>
    

    Body markup:

    <div id="home" class="scrollto">
            <!-- Your content goes here -->
    </div>
    <div id="about" class="scrollto">
            <!-- Your content goes here -->
    </div>
    <div id="services" class="scrollto">
            <!-- Your content goes here -->
    </div>
    <div id="contact" class="scrollto">
            <!-- Your content goes here -->
    </div>
    

    3. CSS:

    Add active class into your style.css and style it as you like, eg.:

    .active {
            color: #fff !important;
            text-decoration: underline !important;
            -webkit-transform: translate3d(0, 0, 0);
            -moz-transform: translate3d(0, 0, 0);
            -o-transform: translate3d(0, 0, 0);
            -ms-transform: translate3d(0, 0, 0);
            transform: translate3d(0, 0, 0); // hardware acceleration of CSS animation
    }
    

    Note: You can change active class to anything you want and pass your own class into options object of stickyNavbar function. Be sure to add top: 0 to .sticky class if you want your page to be scrolled on top after each page refresh and not to vertical position presents before page refresh.

    4. jQuery:

    Call stickyNavbar function on the navigation wrapper (.header), nav tag or ul tag either without options object:

    $(function () {
         $('.header').stickyNavbar();
    });
    

    or with the options object:

    $(function () {
        $('.header').stickyNavbar({
            activeClass: "active", // Class to be added to highlight nav elements
            sectionSelector: "scrollto", // Class of the section that is interconnected with nav links
            animDuration: 350, // Duration of jQuery animation as well as jQuery scrolling duration
            startAt: 0, // Stick the menu at XXXpx from the top of the this() (nav container)
            easing: "swing", // Easing type if jqueryEffects = true, use jQuery Easing plugin to extend easing types - gsgd.co.uk/sandbox/jquery/easing
            animateCSS: true, // AnimateCSS effect on/off
            animateCSSRepeat: false, // Repeat animation everytime user scrolls
            cssAnimation: "fadeInDown", // AnimateCSS class that will be added to selector
            jqueryEffects: false, // jQuery animation on/off
            jqueryAnim: "slideDown", // jQuery animation type: fadeIn, show or slideDown
            selector: "a", // Selector to which activeClass will be added, either "a" or "li"
            mobile: false, // If false, nav will not stick under viewport width of 480px (default) or user defined mobileWidth
            mobileWidth: 480, // The viewport width (without scrollbar) under which stickyNavbar will not be applied (due user usability on mobile)
            zindex: 9999, // The zindex value to apply to the element: default 9999, other option is "auto"
            stickyModeClass: "sticky", // Class that will be applied to 'this' in sticky mode
            unstickyModeClass: "unsticky" // Class that will be applied to 'this' in non-sticky mode
        });
    });
