How To Create A Custom Sticky Header Using Xpro Theme Builder For Elementor

A sticky header is an important feature in the Xpro theme builder for Elementor to keep users engaged with your content and simplify the navigation process for important pages. This feature helps you reduce your website’s bounce rate and increases the potential for generating more leads or prospects.

With the Xpro Free Elementor Theme Builder, you can create a custom header for your WordPress website and easily make it sticky with just a single click—no shortcode required. Theme Builder allows you to design and implement custom headers directly from the live front-end or back-end dashboard. 

Once your custom header is live, you can make it sticky and style it using the multiple customization options available in the Xpro theme builder. This not only enhances the user experience but also improves your website’s performance, navigation, and lead-generation capability.

How to Enable Sticky Header in Elementor

To make the Header layout sticky, open the Xpro Theme Builder’s front-end dashboard, and go to the header layout section.

Now simply click on the Sticky option available in the Edit Layout options and Enable it.

Don’t forget to update the settings by clicking the Update button available at the bottom of the dashboard.

Your Sticky Header will look something like this on the live website.

How to Customize Your Elementor Sticky Header

Once your sticky header is live and running, you can easily customize it using our free Elementor theme builder. Let’s see how you can do that.

After updating your header layout settings, click on the Elementor button available in the Edit Layout option of the theme builder panel. This will take you to the Elementor Page Builder Editor.

Using our free theme builder for Elementor, you can create whopping effects on your website header. You can fully customize your logo, buttons, and different CTAs for default and sticky views. Let’s see how you can do that!

How to Customize Header Background for Default and Sticky Views

You can easily customize your header background for default and sticky view by using our free theme builder for Elementor. To do this, edit your Header Layout by following the steps above. You will be redirected to Elementor Editor.

Click on the “Edit Icon ” and go to the “Advanced Tab.”

Navigate to the “Header Sticky” option available within the advanced tab. Now simply change the color of your header for the sticky header. You can set the background type to solid color or gradient fill. Here, we will try a solid color.

You can also tweak the settings of your header background color to be displayed on the sticky default menu, or both.

Change these settings from the toggle buttons in front of the Default and Sticky options. Additionally, you can add a box shadow, and a border, and set custom padding for both sticky and default headers.

Your header will look something like this on default and sticky views.

How to Customize Header Logo for Default and Sticky Views

If you want to show a different logo on your Elementor sticky header,  then Elementor’s the theme builder for elementor can easily help you achieve this customization. Simply edit your Header Layout and duplicate the existing logo (if any) or add a new one.

Now edit the newly added logo as you want. You can change the logo, set it for your sticky header, add a link to it, and more. Click on “Edit Site Logo” and choose the desired logo from the “General” option under the Content section.

Now go to the “Advanced tab” and show or hide this logo on default and sticky views from the “Header Sticky” option. Here, we toggled the hide option for the default view because we only want to showcase this logo on the sticky header view.

Similarly, you will set the setting for 1st logo to display on the default view and hide it on the sticky header view.

Now, your header will look like this on default and sticky views.
