Install

Download source zip No release zip yet

This is the repository archive. It installs, but the folder name will carry the branch suffix and updates will not flow.

Install straight from GitHub with WP-CLI:

wp plugin install https://github.com/ms13th-cyber/wp-smart-reading-progress-bar/archive/refs/heads/main.zip
Updates itself. It ships its own updater (Plugin Update Checker), so new versions appear under Dashboard → Updates.

A lightweight, customizable reading progress bar for WordPress. It provides visual feedback to readers by showing how far they have scrolled through a post, improving engagement and user experience.

Key Features

  • Performance Focused (Vanilla JS): Built with pure JavaScript (no jQuery). This ensures minimal impact on site loading speed and Core Web Vitals.
  • Highly Customizable: Easily adjust the bar's color, thickness (height), and position (top or bottom) via the admin settings.
  • Conditional Loading: You can choose specific post types (e.g., Posts, Pages, or Custom Post Types) where the progress bar should appear.
  • Responsive Design: Works perfectly on desktops, tablets, and smartphones.

Installation

  1. Upload the wp-smart-reading-progress-bar folder to your /wp-content/plugins/ directory.
  2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress.
  3. Go to Settings > Reading Progress to customize the appearance and visibility.

Technical Details

This plugin uses the IntersectionObserver or scroll event listeners in a highly optimized way to ensure smooth rendering without causing "layout shift" or browser lag.
